Seems to be quite a lot of sellers out there who flip cars for a living, mostly dealing with salvage titles but sometimes without. I'm detecting a...
Good question. Any suggestions? I mean aside from getting a pre-purchase inspection.
Okay, I'll rule out salvage titles. That was my instinct but just thought I'd check. There's a 2017 Prius 4 with a clean title and 152k miles on...
After posting in the Gen3 section, I think I've decided to spend a bit more and get a Gen4 instead.... only to discover the whole heat exchange...
That sounds great, but probably more hassle than I'm capable of at the moment :LOL: Seems like it would only be feasible it you bought the car in...
Yeah, was just reading about that.... :(
Thanks, really helpful post. All things considered, it sounds like I should hold out for Gen4, especially given that the prices are often not all...
Thanks. I've read mixed things about them. And I know the battery costs a fortune to replace, but I'll see what's available.
That's what I'm thinking -- good to have it validated. I'll be going to Santa Fe with a dog who get really distressed when he has to fly, and...
I've messaged him for the VIN, but in the meantime he says clean title, great condition etc. But actually, looking at it again, he said "It has...
If I want to stick with a Prius (which I kind of do), I guess it boils down to how much better a Gen 4 is compared to a later Gen 3, considering...
I've been without a car for a while, just relying on my bike and public transport. But I have an aging parent I'd like to visit more often, and...
I find myself in need a car and am shopping for a used Prius. I've had two Gen 2s in the past, and was very happy with them overall, but I'm...
Yeah, I almost bought a Gen 3 last year but read too many horror stories about them here and elsewhere, so I was scared off them. Can't a afford a...
That's a good point, thanks. Seems similar to what happens with the housing market ever 10 years or so. Might be good to just wait a while.
I'd be comfortable with something under 100k and a newish hybrid battery, and not gobbling oil. But I guess those are getting harder to find...
I'm guessing the cat is the original, and that the battery is whatever Toyota typically sends authorized repair garages (rebuilt, I think?). But...
Here's the scoop: 180k miles Newish hybrid battery replaced around 30k miles ago Burning around 2 quarts of oil every 1,000 miles Mechanic said...
Good point, though seller claims that all maintenance has been kept up and done at Toyota, and that it had a recent check-up. The door damage...
Craigslist, natch. It's hard to find any that are decent around here, at least for a good price. I just read that used car prices have gone up...
