    To me that looks pretty spiffy for the mileage and all I don't know if that's original pack or what but it seems pretty decent car drive pretty good? I generally that's all the Prius needs is to be driven is when they get parked somebody gets a new toy whatever the situation is it becomes a second if you will whatever that's when a lot of the fun usually starts.

    You might be able to get it to run a little bit longer but at the end of the day a 2009 battery is what now 15 years old generally they're known to go about 10 so you're on borrowed time regardless obviously you have more time than resources so this is the route you take but good luck maybe you'll get it to hold up until you need it to and then you can do something else or dump the car and get something newer which is generally everyone's end game.
