Hybrid Vehicles Toyota Prius Prius Owners w/50K - What We Think Now

We have a 2008 Prius and the display screen has (of course) lots of fingerprints on it, but also has a real static/dust problem. Anybody have any good ideas to keep that clingy dust off the screen and dash, for that matter?

I just found this site last week and I surely do enjoy all of your comments. I know that my new Prius is a very complicated machine and it is a bit scary to think what "could" happen. But so many of your comments are reassuring as to reliability and longevity of the Prius that my mind is now at ease. I can fully relax and enjoy our new car. Love that Barcelona red! We traded a 2005 Corolla that had over 80k miles on it (we bought it new) for the Prius. We really likedthe Corolla, but it was a CE model with no options and the Prius is well equipped by comparison, so It's been a real treat for us. The interior is beautiful, but that upholstery does look fragile, doesn't it? Apparently, from what some of you have written, though, that it's actually easy to clean. We have the biscuit-colored fabric. I kind of wince when I get in to sit down with my blue jeans on. Almost like it's too nice to sit on. Toyota quality is legendary and we are happy owners. Keep on posting!

I didn't know that the complete battery replacement charge had dropped to $3200, and sure didn't know that the individual cells can be replaced as opposed to the entire thing. Enjoy your positive outlook throughout your postings.

5-1/2 years and 98,000 miles, no mechanical issues or complaints, but I am on my 4th set of tires. I find if I go too fast they fail, so I never push the rated speed anymore. I have always loved it and knew from early on with the Prius that my next car would be a Prius. (Hoping for a PHEV model soon, will keep mine a few more years if need be to wait) |

Replying to: gwmort (May 06, 2008 10:00 am) Can you expand on your tire wear experience. I am awaiting my Touring Prius and have heard some issues with Tire wear. The tires seem to have a "V" speed rating which seems to indicate a higher speed tire. Are you running "V" rated tires? What do you mean by "I never push the rated speed anymore"?? Can you expand on this some more? Also, can anyone out there suggest a good 3 season tire for when my first set wears out? Good meaning: >=50K miles on a set, good 3 season traction, low rolling resistance and lower noise? Thx |
