    It's new to me and got it cheap! Just curious, at 75k miles.. are there any MUST do maintenance things i should get to right away? I'm new to hybrids and their battery tech.. curious if I should take it to a dealer for an inspection or if i can test the health of the engine/battery etc myself. When are sparks plugs normally changed in these? Hoping i can run this car into the ground over a long period of time and enjoy saving money.

    If you look under "maintenance and troubleshooting", you will find a library of answers! Also, look for the "Nutz and Bolts" videos.

    congrats!
    just regular maintenance up to 120k. oil and filter, air and cabin filters, rotate tires, inspect and lube brake slide pins.
    you may want to change the tranny oil.
    all the best!(y)
