    Do you think I should replace my hoses at some point or interval on my 2012 Prius C two? Right now they look great and the car has 110k well maintained miles. The car came from PA and now resides in TN and it's parked in my garage much of the time.
    I was thinking I could replace these hoses the next time I flush my coolant in perhaps 2-3 years, or maybe even 5 years.
    (I just flushed it about 2 months ago.)

    I have a 2004 prius with 155,000 miles on it. Non of the hoses have been replaced. If you live in a hot climate this could age the hoses faster.
