Today the odometer says 50,000 miles. The only thing I've done besides the services (which amount to little more than changing the oil) is replacing the original tires with a set of Michelin Hydroedge tires. I'm looking forward to the next 50,000 miles. I love this car.
Hey, these are young cars. His is an '04, so that's at least 25,000 miles a year. It will be awhile before it hits 250,000, even at that rate, Mr GM... Congrats, Dave! At the rate I drive, it'll take me 5 years to get to 50,000!
Dave- I had a saturn with the standard goodyears and put the hydroedge on ... and wow what a difference@! sadly, my toyota dealer would not upgrade my tires so i am here to ask how is your mileage with the hydroedge? better - worse or about the same? thanks barb
I expect to hit 50,000 in the first 11 to 13 months. Good to hear you made it without breaking a sweat..
congrats. i'm 13months into ownership and racked up 41k miles and going strong. i can't wait to hit 100k in the next year or two
I have been for quite awhile, having went back to 0 starting with a new Prius. That 50,000 is a very exciting journey... now only 2 months from completing for me! Of course, that distance is nothing. Your Prius is just finding it's stride... now that you are well broken in!
As far as I can tell (there are so many variables) I get about 1 mpg less with the hydroedges. They do handle better, though.
