    Hello all my name is Thomus (obviously) I have a Prius that I have a love and hate relationship. I have a commute of 90 Miles a day with an elevation drop of 4000 feet to work, of course that’s 4000 feet back up... after all that I still get an average of 45 mpg. I love that it can keep a pretty damn good clip going up the hill that has a crazy amount of truck traffic.

    Oh it’s broke down and I’m trying to figure out if it’s the combo meter, the inverter pump, or perhaps even the ecu. I’ve got a thread in the gen2 trouble shooting forum if anyone wants to help
