    Yes, you heard it. The clock turned 60,000 miles and the first part on my car broke. I'm so furious at the lack of quality control in this pile of Japanese crap!!!

    Ok so I'm kidding. 60,000 miles and my first repair was a burned out tail light bulb. I got two of them for $2.00 (one extra in case the other burns out anytime soon). :D It was so easy to replace that I walked outside and changed it in the rain before the customer who followed me out the door even made it out of his parking spot. Ha!

    I love this car!

    A couple of months ago I was following another Prius into the REI parking lot and noticed that one of his taillights was out, so after I parked, I went over and let him know about it.

    Sounds like an epidemic. Damn unreliable cars. ;)
