    Just a quick story. I live in the Tampa Bay area and bought my 2003 a year ago Setember with 194,000 miles. The car was from the Syracuse New York area originally. Last year the car made the trip back to FL and has been my daily driver. A few weeks ago, I made the trip up to NY. The car performed flawlessly. I did a non-stop 1350 miles back to FL in 19.5 hours. Avg was 69 mph door to door including stops at 39 mpg. Yes actual speeds were a bit higher! My only issue was freezing the windshield washer fluid up north. It warmed enough the next day so I emptied and replaced with blue juice. The car has 210,000 miles and I continue to marvel at the technology and efficiency! Hence my screen name PriusRox.

    It is good to see a high mileage one. I target 250K miles and 10 years for my cars.
