    Thanks to everyone for your advice and comments. Sold the car yesterday for a grand. The guy was really impressed with the condition I kept the car in. The car was mint inside and excellent exterior. Good luck to him and all prius owners. Unless Toyota comes up with a better system I will pass on the hybrids. Hey Toyota. Put a switch on the hybrids where you can bypass the traction battery when it goes bad.:)

    Toyota don't read these forums.

    If you understood the HSD (hybrid synergy drive) design, you would understand you cannot just bypass the traction battery. What would be the point of a hybrid that had no battery assist, anyway?

    Good luck in your endeavors, too.
