Could this be why the Prius is popular?

I actually test drove 4 Versa's over the course of a month and I was definately in love with the SL that I bought, but....the car had transmission issues after 600miles, something about a sensor that wasn't allowing it to shift correctly, and the engine started to make loud clicking sounds after 1000 miles, and also the fact that the car started to lose power on take-off. I also noticed that the MPG dropped substancially over the few months that I had it.---hope that helped keydiver.
But I did get lucky though with trading it in, The dealer over appraised it, I am assuming because it was such a new model, I paid $15,500 and they gave me $16,000. And about 5 hours later I got them to give me $1,000 off the window sticker.

I would have liked it on the Prius though, but only if the system could guarantee that the ICE would not turn on, and the heater would still function. but I definately have no complaints about this car, Couldn't be happier!

Well that's really good news. I think it would be dangerous to in reverse fast.

Ha Ha Ha Ha, thats funny, I was lucky with that one, it was in its storage place when I bought the car, so no guessing on my part. B)

Ok, where do you put the cover, I haven't figured that one out yet.

HV battery might've been low or there might've been other reasons why the ICE needed to run. Try it when there's sufficient charge and when the AC and heater are off and the engine is warmed up.

It has its own little spot in the storage tray in the cargo area.

Yes this is a photo from the Toyota web page, I have stuff in the back of mine and didn't want to take a picture of it.

Yes, that would be great if I could find some locks to install. I will have to ask my dealer if they know of anything.

It would be really embarassing if my rifle got stolen, besides all the money that I would lose. I wonder if someone would try to sue me if it was stolen and then used to kill a bunch of people?? It would only be harmful if it got in the wrong hands.

I simply don't feel safe unless I am riding my modified 105mm Vespa LX150. If you think Prius drivers get no respect on the roads, try riding a two wheeler.
