    i sell because im moving to toronto, i got cars there already waiting for me (aka bimmer 3 series yo!!)
    I took such good care of my Prius, honestly if I had to choose I'd ship it over to where I'm moving to, however, my family has already cars for me so really it'll be a moot point. A lot of the things I changed was for preventative maintainence and is not to suggest things kept breaking on my car, actually the only thing that went bad was the left front strut was leaking, so I replaced both, this car is good to go! I reduced the price, and as always or best offer and if you really want i can pull the service history on the car since I got the infostream.toyota.ca hookup Trust me this Prius will save someone a lot of gas looking for a good A to B car, everything on this car works and I recharged the A/C last summer. Also I found out Toyota plans to still sell my current generation model even though the 2010 Prius is a whole new design to compete agaist the Honda Insight hybrid, in terms of value for the consumer (classic bodystyle or new). SO you know Toyota will always support my model with updated parts, cheaper HV batteries replacements and what not. I used a scangauge II to measure battery voltage for the high voltage battery, and it swings between 190 volts all the way to 270 when under heavy regeneration braking, so you know this HV battery is not dying anytime soon. Toyota done a fanastic job trying to claim that the HV battery will last the lifetime of the car. And for kicks the EV button mode is installed as well! Plus CANVIEW for the curious email me

    car also had 4 window visors that the person can install themselfs using traditional 3m tape.
