    My loyal little 2005 Prius companion, after giving me 260k+ miles, has officially gone to that big parking lot in the sky. I just bought a 2009 Prius to replace it (with low milage but a lot of quirks). I've got a list of things the dealership diagnosed, plus a few non-essential changes I want. I've still got access to my original 2005 so am thinking of swapping some of the non-essential parts from the 2005 to the 2009.

    For all the years I've lived in the greater Baltimore area, I've not found a good mechanic who actually knows about Priuses. Even the dealerships have been repeatedly disappointing (I've typically known more than they do...which is not a testament to my knowledge, but to their lack thereof).

    Anyone have a recommendation for a mechanic who does good work AND knows Priuses, within an hour of Baltimore?
