My 2003 Toyota Prius now has 59,000 miles on it. To date, I have replaced two tires (Switched to Michelins.) and have had the nav computer replaced once. Continues to get right at 44mpg (Over the past 8,000 miles.).
Our 2001 Prius was rear ended by a fast moving young lady in a Mustang. It was totalled. Collapsed properly absorbing shock. Wife was driving it. Uninjured. Bags did not deploy. (Rear ended.) Had about 44,000 miles on it at the time.
Been waiting on a 2004 now for over 6 months. Looking for "Option 9." Hybrid Honda Civics (used, low mileage) are being pushed by local Toyota dealer as alternatives. I will wait for a Prius.
Let me hear your experiences! Will you keep your Prius beyond 100,000 miles? What do you think a new battery will cost. My dealer looked up retail today. It was listed at about $5,400.00. Thought they had gotten cheaper!
