If I were you I would contact Matt at Texas Hybrid Batteries. He is extremely knowledgeable about these cars...he is in Dallas most days of the...
Does anybody rebuild these things? I would think with the prohibitive cost of a new unit from Toyota, that perhaps someone out there could do this...
Great story macmaster05. Kind of cool to see your post come back from the dead and to hear how the car treated you. These cars really are...
Interesting because as you said, I rarely see postings on trans failures on these cars. Have the failures that you have seen been primarily city...
Very nice looking Prius! Quite a bargain for sure. It speaks to the reliability of these cars when a failed transmission at 252k seems premature!
Here a pic of an OEM strut. You have to put a coil spring compressor on to compress the spring so that you can remove the top nut. As long as you...
Well if you're an amateur like me, than it could easily add a couple of hours or more for all 4 struts. If you do decide to do the individual...
Those do look good. That being said, I did the same as Coolio and just bought the cheap Chinese full strut/ spring assembly from Rock Auto. 2...
Clark Howard listed the top 10 cars consumer reports sees reporting 200,000 miles or more. Honda's and Toyota's'! 10 cars that will almost...

Thanks for the compliments. Yes, we definitely live the "Dave Ramsey way", for the most part anyway. His principles definitely work for building...
Believe it or not, it is indeed possible to buy a home with no credit score, though it is a bit difficult. We paid our first home off in 2009,...
It's good to know that the ICE will keep going for seemingly forever despite the oil burning issue , provided you stay on top of oil levels. These...
Please post when you hit 500k! Where are you driving most days to hit this high of mileage?
Basically If it hazes up again in 5 years, they'll do it again for free. I have tried the DIY kit for $25 and the results from Sam's beats the DIY...
I believe both. I didn't ask the specifics on how they did it. The sheet says it's a "patented" method. I do know that they have a UV sealant, and...
