    Would anyone be interested in a random Sunday Prius gathering with a hot cup of coffee or any favorite choice of drink and share mods and ideas?
    Just wanted to throw this out there ;)

    So I’ve got a small shop that’s near a sushi restaurant whose owner is a friend. We’ve done a few meets there before calling it cars and sushi. Maybe we can do one of these for local Prius owners?

    Nice, looks like there’s some interest in this. I just got a bunch of wisdom teeth pulled so I might be down for a day or two, but as soon as I get back I’ll see if we can get a tentative date going.

    Ebon I’m pretty new to these forums but I’m thinking there must be some groups in northern la county that would be closer to you. I just looked up your location and wow! We are a bit south of you.

    Think if Palmdale to Anaheim was your daily commute :eek:.

    That’s what @sfv41901 does;).

    Hey guys, just a quick update. I spoke to my buddy and he’s definitely down for this. I didn’t set a date though as recently I’ve been swamped trying to fix my Prius. It broke down while driving to work one day and I got the “check hybrid system” error. Haven’t had any luck fixing it.

    Would any of you guys have a recommendation for a local mechanic or shop that could help take a look?

    Actually ended up finding a mobile Prius tech that came by. Figured out it was a weak fuel pump and the recommendation is to keep the gas tank above about three bars. And of course change out the fuel pump when we can. I’ve never seen this before.

    We basically added 5 gallons of gas or so and it started right up!

    Hey guys, just an update, we will have a date soon. It won’t just be a Prius event, but probably an open event for cars and sushi. As soon as we have more information I will definitely post it here. Stay tuned!
