    Are there any rural carriers that are using the Prius? How durable are they?

    Ok another question. I am wanting to run gas and brake pedals to passenger side on a 09 model. Do they make a schematic of some sort where I can tell if there is anything under dash to prevent me from doing this?

    I know the gas should be easy, not as sure about the brake.

    I'm still in my 2007, 185,000 miles, original 12v battery, original traction battery, inverter pump died in Febuary,fixed by recall.

    My sub got his own route last August. Bought a 2012 Prius. He found and installed a cable operated brake and gas kit from Canada.

    He mounted the right side pedals on plywood covered with carpet. Didn't want to drill through floor.
    Might work in a Prius v. Jerry

    I hated that buttress with the joystick shifter. That is why I got a C.
