    May be better to post on Facebook Marketplace and Craigslist in your area. Start ads with "Private Owner" as most ads are dealers regardless of what they say. Also say "Firm" and "No Lowball Offers". Meet in neutral public locations like in front of a police station. Require they bring a photo copy of their drivers license and accept cash only. Remember, you have what they want and new cars are in short supply making used cars scarce as well.

    Thanks, it’s on Facebook Marketplace. There is a lot of detail I thought the Prius chat folks would appreciate. And yes, I’m a private owner. Thanks for the advice!

    Non smoker. Thanks for asking what a reconditioned car is: this means that the common issues on this model Prius have been replaced including the hybrid battery with reconditioned OEM cells ($1000 repair). All of the warranty enhancement items were completed as stated in the add . A lot has been fixed so this should run great for a good long time!
