    I got rid of mine... inveter... water pump.... traction battery.... head gasket... brake master..... then trani..... Had a few toyotas and have run them hundreds of thousands of miles..... still using them and recently bouht a matrix....with the prius $$. If you keep them u loose all the money you saved on gas. Plus potential huge traveling hassles. My invert went out 1100 miles from home. Toy had it 21 days.

    Holy cow. That’s more problems than Heidi Fleiss had clients. Not sure what my replacement will be. I have a 2005 Honda Accord. Running just fine. Might look into a CRV.

    Well finally got my new booster pump and master cylinder replaced after a long road trip and hurricane related power outage. Thoughts/prayers go out to those south of me down here in Sarasota.
    Toyota fixed my car in 1 day. Thankful for that as there are no rental cars down here.

    Thanks to all on here that brought attention to warranty extension.
