Thanks, I appreciate it.

Still very much need more participants for all model years. The first 2008s have been enrolled, but will need far more of them. Next results in November.

Thank you for that one as well.

Number of responses so far by year:
2004: 17
2005: 39
2006: 52
2007: 41

The month isn't quite half over, so hopefully all of these will increase a bit. Since there are fewer than 25 responses for the 2004, it's looking like that year's result will get an asterisk once again.

Only two 2008s enrolled so far. Very much need more.

Thank you, I appreciate it.

Seven 2008s so far. Good start, but will need more if this year is to be in the February results.

2008 models in the February results will be in the accompanying press release, as will the forums that helped get them there. I'd love to include the 2008 Prius and PriusChat, but it's going to take a couple dozen more 2008s in the next few weeks.

Just signed up 2008.

Still waiting though to accept delivery.

mkaresh · 12-03-2007, 03:32 AM

Thanks. Just enter -1 for odometer readings until the month after you take delivery (the surveys always cover the previous month).

Current counts:

2008 - 17 (good, but need more)
2007 - 68
2006 - 77
2005 - 54
2004 - 29 (still marginal)

2001-2003 - 5

Total: 250

A big thanks to Danny, the admin, and everyone who has been helping out.

One additional note: I recently added a Common Auto Repairs Database to the site. The form includes a way to include a link to a relevant forum thread. So if there are a few common repairs with the Prius, entering them could help send more traffic this way.

Common Auto Repairs Database (CARDb)

Only about 200 repairs have been entered so far for all cars, but it'll get there.

Also waiting for delivery of my 2008, but signed up.

+1 I just signed up, seems like a neat idea. I'm barely 3000 miles on my 2008 and zero problems so far, it runs like a dream. Hope it continues to do so (being a toyota I don't doubt it)
