    Howdy all! From Billings Montana here, dreams of moving to Arizona at some point.

    Have had many different vehicles with many forum experiences over the years, but looking forward to my first hybrid prius. I am picking up a 2007 Prius tomorrow morning with less than 62000 original miles on it, very well maintained with dealer service records from the original owner. Excited to learn about the prius models and start racking up some miles! Thanks for having me!

    Ill add some pictures once I get it washed up tomorrow.

    Wow that's great low mileage.

    Prius G2 does best if driven alot daily to keep the hybrid battery active and charged. With that low mileage its sat alot and probably elderly owned and that hybrid battery may be dying becasue its not been driven alot to keep it alive.
    But its well worth it to buy a new hybrid battery as that car will last many many years if taken care of properly.

    I'd buy it!

    Please use the search forums link hundreds of posts about what to do to replace that battery and your options. You can use the Search Forums link up top but here's a direct link to that battery discussion.

    Hybrid battery replacement on this car given its age is one of most post about discussions.

    Good luck!
