    If you bought the car March 1 that would be over 225 miles per day. Now that's a LOT of driving! What do you do that you put so many miles on the car; sales of some sort?

    Only one problem...:rolleyes:Wife prefers to drive her Tahoe or TSX (more power)instead of the Prius. No mechanical problems at all. Driver's seat is showing some wear on the left, lower bolstering (might need a repair or replace it with leather).

    LOVE MY PRIUS!!!!!

    2004, 53,000 miles. Bought it from my dad at 15K miles in late 2006 (after he took delivery of a 2007 Silver Pine Mica - because he wanted a Prius with the rear camera and didn't understand the concept of installing aftermarket).

    ECU reflash and steering shaft replaced per SSCs. MFD replaced under warranty. Two replacement sets of tires installed so far. Among the last to get CA carpool stickers, when the last 10,000 were made available in January 2007.

    We've put 38K miles on the 2004 in 1-1/2 years. My wife loves the car and wants us to keep it until it dies.
