I'm thinkin, turning the Prius into a FJ Land Cruiser before battery replacement arrives. That Land Cruiser would get er done

Just push the power button, it will turn it 'off' haha.

Prius V is the top of the line. Does yours come with the LED headlights and moonroof? Does yours also come with lane assit warning and pre-collison feature, like it will brake by itself before you fall asleep and hit something lol.
It's a cool car with a lot of technologies. But for, $30K plus for a prius V is a lot of money......you need many years and many miles to save the money from your mpg.

Congrats again, now you burn way more gas, you have a much noisier car, you lose your led headlights and some other hi-tech stuff...

You guys can't just make up your mind huh?

It had all that plus the solar roof panel to run a fan to cool the battery when out of the car.

yes to actually cool down the cabin before you get into the car, in the summer.
you can turn ur A/C on, from your remote control. your prius doesn't
need to be started and it doesn't use any gas!!!

you can't do that on your new subaru now.

The Prius is an interesting car. The batteries are supposed to be "average lifetime" of the average driver now. People with the original are still running without battery replacements.

Outback pics, have just started using this camera:

Wonder where the wood grain on the dash came from??? Only comes in the Limited trim.

Wrong

The correct answer is ,,,,,,,, SVX

I have no clue about the radio, I could just lucked up to make the cd play. It's the wife's car, I'm keeping possession of my 20 year old SVX. I do like the paddle shifters in the Outback, it is soooo roomy compared to our early 1990's Legacy wagons. It's as much like a Lexus SUV as I'll ever own, probably more solid.

Your "plastic factory " answer means that you know LON about the SVX, correct?
