    Do those all belong to one person? They look like they are being corralled for salvage. All of them have front end damage too.

    :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: I hope not!! I think I would'a quit driving after the 3rd or 4th.

    Make sure your Pri doesn't see that!!

    Whenever I take my old trail rig to the boneyard, it suffers emotional damage. The first time it started puking oil out of the front axle on the way home. The 2nd time, the alternator croaked.

    If I have to go for parts again, I'm walking there.

    To me that says people need to stop looking at the mfd and start looking at the road.

    Haha... sorry. I meant if someone bought all those for salvage purposes. They all have front-end damage so maybe someone is collecting batteries and other hybrid goodies?

    Obviously victims of an urban terrorist attack. Which suburb of Detroit did this atrocity occur?

    picture was associated with.

    I dont remember what auction I got it from. If you havent noticed, there has been a slue of random salvaged parts for priuses on ebay. I just happened to go into one of the auctions and saw this pic.

    My guess is that the photo may be from 'autobeyours' graveyard. Woody/Steve does sign in here from time to time. He is a great resource for 2004 and later Prius if you are anywhere near Indiana.

    I have actually been to that yard...yes it is Steve's. Think of it as a hope yard, because it is the place where a Prius who is damage beyond repair can still donate his/her parts that others might drive again!!!

    Yeah, Steve is doing some really great stuff out there. He found me
    a set of Katrina-flooded ECUs for way cheap, which after some cleanup
    are yielding passable pictures [which will at some point get posted].
    He needs a little work in the packing/shipping department, from most
    reports, but if he can keep the parts there locally and get 'em into
    other Priuses, the results seem pretty nice...
    .
    I'm trying to get him to come to Hybridfest...

    It's not funny, my prius lives only a few dozen miles away from Detroit. :rolleyes:
