My 2002 has rusted to death, runs great, only 120,000 miles. Would like to keep for parts if I can find another to buy. Will travel to pick up.
A bit of a trek from Ithaca, but I might be partial to this rust free gen1 : -Year2002 Toyota prius hybrid original owner,AllServiceR Available!!!! - cars & trucks - by owner - vehicle automotive sale Not sure if that would work out travel wise, but they are willing to accept reasonable offers!! Maybe I can located something a little rustier, and closer to home.
I saw one in FL that I was considering - that probably would be the max, 1500 miles or so. There is a 2001 in VA that looks good, but Carfax report shows that the battery (12 volt) was replaced 8 times- I'm wondering if that is just because it possibly sat without being driven often and battery died.(Low mileage car) Seems weird though.
