15 year cost of ownership (Cash buyers)

to Chuck:
hmmm
what a coincident ..

I joint the forum because bought Prius recently and just did Backup camera mod.

I do not support OP view 100%..
I highlighted that doable as long as fix the car by myself, where not everyone would does...

this is the same goal to my Prius. I assume would be less maintenance than my previous Tiburon, which needed more attention from me.

the good thing as now: I cut my gas spending from ~$270 to ~$70,
the bad thing, I missed hp from Tiburon, this is not a biggie, since driving hybrid I rarely driving over speed limit
