It's an '04 model year though, correct?

I think it depends...I've been driving my early '04 for 70k miles and over 4 years and it's fantastic...I have no concerns about it at all. That said I have had the MFD replaced and all recalls and several of the TSBs.

If the price is good, if the MFD's been replaced and/or it has an extended warranty, and it's been well serviced with all recall work and such then I can think of no good reason not to get it.

TSB's?

no ext warranty only 6 monts dealer. ( not a toyota dealer )

and yes its a 2004 model "PRIUS II

"

the model is almost over its hybird warranty regarding the miles its been on the road.
