We got our '05 in the middle of October 2005, and we have ~12500 miles on it.
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(Recovering Gas Guzzler @ Mar 15 2007, 07:24 PM) [snapback]406418[/snapback]</div> Yeah, it's a total rip off. I knew about the priuschat offer, but the warranty already expired on the car I own, so it's no good. That's the only part of the purchase I really hate...well the 63,000 miles sucks as well, but that shouldn't be too bad if it really does last up to 150,000 miles. I still plan on taking the bus to work, so that'll ease up the mileage use over a few years. I don't know why the previous owner didn't buy the warranty, especially when they were commuting so much.
Since April 2005 (when I got the Prius) 33,000 happy miles. I've changed the tires and will have to decide soon about the extended warranty.
End of August 2006. 4750 miles. Didn't drive much in winter. Hoping to take her (Pria) everywhere this spring/summer/fall.
got the car 2 years ago saturday. (3/17) has just over 27500 miles on it but i've got a short commute to anywhere i may need to go. needs a new set of tires but that's all so far.
We have 14,097 miles on our 2005 Prius that we purchased in October 2004. We gave away our Miata and sold our Subaru because, for 5 years my DP and I were both working from home. We mostly use the car to go to Trader Joe's on weekends. Most of the miles on our car were from round trips from Palm Springs CA to Sacratomato to visit family. What a wonderful excellent car for long drives! It is exactly 500 miles to my sister's house and after driving the whole way myself one time I was nowhere near as exhausted as I used to be with other cars. BTW, it's me again, absent for several years, loving our Prius. I came back today to look into the extended warranty. I want Danny to get a piece of it. It's nice to see so many familiar folks still posting here.
Got my 06 as a demo car at the end of April '06 with 6K KM already on it. I am just shy of 42K KM (~26K mi).
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(mywhitenoise @ Mar 16 2007, 11:09 AM) [snapback]406794[/snapback]</div> Last month in New York City I saw 2 Prii taxis (or the same car twice?). 1st & 2nd generation cars have racked up 200,000+ miles of taxi service without major repairs. That is why, IMO, one shouldn't buy an extended warranty. NJ also has the 150,000 mile emissions warranty. My advice is to cancel that extended warranty and invest the money. You should be happier in the long run.
04 PKG #7 72,323 miles scary huh? Only issue MFD cracked during trip in the desert max tmp was 125F other than the screen cracking the AC still cranked!
