        I saw your Facebook pictures. She really looked happy. I still love my Prius, too. Amazing cars.

      Hi Jerry - Glad to hear that Sun got your recall taken care of. Did you need to schedule in advance? I am nearing my first oil change on the '14 PIP I bought back in November, and hope to have the recall work done at the same time. Also, what do you typically pay for an oil change from the dealer?

      Thanks for your time and insightful posts...Kevin

        Good to know. Thank you. I will call them a week or two out. I wish I could do my own oil changes, but I don't own any of the ramps/jacks, pans, etc that I would need, and I'm afraid that there is a "learning curve" that I should have completed on a '96 Chevy or the likes many years ago, but never did.

        No worries. It's pretty easy. If you're close to New Port Richey, maybe you could bring yours over for the next oil change and I'll show you how or else talk you through it. Can't do that now because I'm getting ready for a three week trip to Africa and leave next Friday.

        Thanks. I may take you up on that offer one of these days. I am in the Trinity area a few times per week, so it may just work out. Have a good trip, and be safe over there.

      Jerry,

      I see you have the Prolong system AND are an electrical engineer and/or lineman. I have three Prii and am thinking about it. What do you think, Good Stuff, or Snake Oil?

        Good stuff, assuming you have Prii with NiMh batteries. When we came back from Honduras, we bought two Gen 2's from Todd at Tampa Hybrids. He actually recommended I get one since we had two batteries to maintain. It impressed me that he would suggest that since it would potentially cost him repair income down the road.
        I'll send more by message.

    I know it's cheating to use Fuelly for this since they don't account for electricity. But it's a lot more compact than my 28 column spreadsheet. :cool:
