    Greetings, I have a 2005 and a 2006 that both need some work to get them back on the road. Both were driven to their present location but have not been driven on the road for over a year. Does anyone know of a knowledgeable honest Prius mechanic in southwestern Ohio.
    Thanks for any info. Eric

    I found your website and it is quite a long way from Cincy. I think I may have met you at an auto auction years ago in Cincy or Dayton, I refurbish hybrid batteries..... if you have an inexpensive way of flat bedding my cars to your location I'm open to negotiation on repairs. Their problems are very different.

    That was my first thought too and think they're in Indiana but in looking at their website it seems their location is now unknown and looks like they got hijacked.

    Do you have a really good parts store that you are familiar with?!? ... I mean when you go in they know who you are?!? Ask them who they think would be your best bet. I worked in a parts store in high-school (’77-’80). We could/would recommend different guys for different issues. It’s funny that we even had a guy we called “Andy the Transmission Guy”. I think they would give you good advice.
