    We always like to minimize cost. We keep our cars a LONG time. Still driving the 2000 Tundra LE & 2008 Corolla LE.

    My son currently drives a 2024 RAV4 Prime XSE & uses the standard charger. He is able to commute on EV but has the Hybrid capabilities for longer trips. This is what he ended up with as a replacement for his Prius V.

    My wife reminded me this could very well be the last time we purchase a new car. <y age keeps creeping up & my wife is fighting likely a losing battle with Cancer. :(

    Our next ride, whether used or new will likely be the last xar ourchase as well. The actuaries would say I've only got another 10 years to go. LOL. Then again my dad survived World War ii, heavy smoking and drinking and nearly made it to 97.

    I hit 70 this year. Rachel has been suffering a year from brain,.lung, & bone cancer. This has been a rough week. I cannot afford to retire & it looks like I lost my job of 18 years & my 2017 Prius this week. Fortunately I had no passengers and was not injured. The car is likely a write-off. Front passenger door & glass, 2 side curtain airbags & seat side airbag. I saw glass flying low. The 4Runner saw my curtain airbag.

    All the best to you and your wife, I will say a prayer for her.
    If you can get a good deal on a 24, I would consider it.
    We paid msrp last summer, and have no regrets. We’re getting 50 mpg around town, and 48 on our Florida trip last winter.

    I assume you mean a 2024 HyCam. It looks like they are pushing the 2025. I was just getting a jump start on research. I do not know for sure if the Prius is totalled. I think I may find out in the next week.

    My son felt fortunate to pay MSRP for his 2024 RAV4 Prime XSE. Many dealers who actually get them charge over MSRP.He & his brother just got back from a round trip from central Virginia to Chicago for some events.
