I have never owned a hybrid or a Prius but am considering the purchase of a used Gen II. Are there differences I should be aware of / concerned about in the different years within the Gen II's? Most of the cars I have looked at have been 2005, 2006, and 2007. Any specific packages I should be looking for? Thanks in advance for any help in this process.
get the newest, lowest mileage you can afford with whatever package/options you're interested in. i had an 04 loaded and now have an 08 stripped. both beautiful cars. all the best.:welcome:

Regarding the inverter coolant pump, there's now Toyota replacing water pumps in 2004-2007 Prius hybrids | PriusChat.
I used the one at ToyotaCertified when I was shopping for my new (to me) 2008. I can't post links yet, but you can find the PDF for the 2008 here: hxxp://toyotacertified. com/ebrochures/08_prius.pdf
