Maybe the tec guys drove the snot out of the company Prius because they did not own it, like it, were embarrased to drive it, etc.
I have a 2010 Prius liftback that I bought new in July of 09. They have two trip meter / mpg calculator, 1 I only reset at each 10,000 mile oil change, which takes me a bit more than a year. The car has averaged a bit over 51 mpg over the 3-1/2 years I have owned it. We drive it at the speed limit to flow with traffic, so most of those miles are at 65 with maybe 20% at 75. It,s been a good car. Haul it off to the dealer at 1 year / 10,000 miles for a tire rotation, 4 qts of new synthetic motor oil ( still looks almost new on the stick at 10K), top up the coolant and other fluids and it's good for another year. The thing never gives a lick of trouble. At 500-520 miles on the other trip meter, the gas gauge is down to the last bar, so pull in and fill it. The pump has yet to click off at 10+ gallons, usually about 9.6-9.8 gallons, that after driving 500+ miles since the last fillup. That kind of thumps you along side the head, saying, something pretty good going on here. This in a comfortable 5 passenger car.

I really hate to see a good tractor being treated that way, but not being able to start it without a 30 minute point filing ritual every time contributed to its demise. If it would just start when I turn the key, then I would use it more often. In addition to a bad case of old age, most of the tractor's original electrical system was simply too unreliable to keep. The main focus of this page is to show how I upgr
