Old thread, I know, but I can't resist commenting. When reading the OP's post, it felt like I was reading something out of the annual book...
I just took a good look at mine the other day, when I spent a lot of time in the back seat measuring all sorts of things figuring out what...
I mean this in the best possible way, even if it might be interpreted as sarcastic or mean. I think that if you can afford a used 2011 Prius but...
The rear weight difference Prius vs Prime is less than 2 Americans in the back seat, maybe 1 after Thanksgiving dinner. But it is significant,...
I know I'm going to be odd man out here, and I even know folks will say I'm wrong or nuts. But here we go. I started using Michelin X-Ice 3...
I wouldn't worry about it at all. I've found that the biggest factors in how EV range at full charge varies, are: 1. How have I been using EV...
Awesome. On my 2017 Prime, I ran for 63K miles on a set of 205/65R15XL 99T Michelin X-Ice 3 snows that I installed when the car had 700 miles on...
You're certainly correct, I was a little confused about the HV charging vs the 12v charging for a minute there. I guess I wasn't precisely...
I'm beginning to set my Prime up for an extended road trip, maybe 2 months doing mostly dispersed camping in remote areas out west, plus a bit of...
Yes. With the fob in the car, Ready, in P, when the EV range gets to 0, the engine starts and the car just stays in P, switches itself to HV (if...
I assumed the opposite, that the 12V charges in every gear but N, which at least in my Gen 2 disconnects the motor/generator(s?). I know for sure...
I don't worry about the engine being unprotected if it first starts up on the highway, I trust they got that right. But I do prefer having it...
I agree that plugging in to L2 isn't harmful. But I disagree if you extrapolate that to mean that frequent extreme regen descents, habitual...
With 3 years and 80K miles on my 2017 Prime, and routinely making extensive use of all sorts of simple and advanced strategies, here is my 2 cents...
Go for it, then. I'd just swap them on and try them out, at least. Or is your Gen 4 already sold/gone? The difference in energy consumed by...
I've always been a supporter of installing a receiver hitch, and then using whatever hitch-mounted bike rack, cargo carrier, or tow ball was...
Well......I changed my mind and did what I wanted to, rather than worry that a small change in tire size might cause Toyota to go nuts on me if...
I agree. And some of the people will prefer one or the other, while others might cross-shop the two. I'm fine with that. Personally, I'm hoping...
Does your current version allow the "back door" method to allow entering new destinations while moving? And do you use that? If so, think twice...
My view seems different from most here. I see the Prime as intrinsically more valuable than a Gen 4, and a Gen 4 as intrinsically more valuable...
