Pretty sweet, eh? Jesse's Classic Prius is still going strong with the original battery-pack. There are more photos available on my website for those interested in his adventures (lots of traveling, obviously).
Wow John that is awesome! I hope your website has pics of your car? What is the exterior condition of your car? How many problems have you had with the car. Shoot maybe that is all on your website. Gotta go check. Was just amazed when I saw your miles!
That is awesome. I guess this answers the biggest question regarding life expectancy of the prius. I've got a long way to go...only got 735 mi. under the belt so far.
Pretty neat. John, you out of put a series on your site with the 150k+ cars listed, 200k+ cars and 250k+ cars. Nice place to point the nay sayers.
For years, I've waited to establish a 100,000 mile club. Now it appears as though that's finally realistic. If people send me photos, I'll supply the webpages & bandwidth for our stash of rebuttal material.
bummer can t see the pic. says content is blocked. *edit* well i can see it by going to the website. obtw, shouldnt the thread be "270,513 and counting"??
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(DaveinOlyWA @ Jan 23 2007, 08:46 AM) [snapback]379536[/snapback]</div> Probably. Can you edit the thread title? Update it every 50 k miles. BTW, saw the OD photo of 222,222. He should shoot for 666,666. Dave M.

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(john1701a @ Mar 5 2006, 07:08 PM) [snapback]220869[/snapback]</div> That is totally shocking! Big congrats JohnG
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(john1701a @ Mar 5 2006, 11:08 PM) [snapback]220869[/snapback]</div> Wow! This is (for Europe) 435,350 Kilometres and still counting! This is double the life expectancy of a car ! AMAZING... Also, I ought to tell you John, your site is just amazing! ALL THESE YEARS you have been gathering data with such obsessive thoroughness! You ve been a mentor to me! Sincerely, a great big thank you, for all you ve done.
