Sounds like the deal of the century. You could go 8 years before any major repairs, so: less than a thousand dollars a year to own it? Amazing....
Whups, I forgot about the 12v battery (like, $200). But should do at 4 years, for reasons. (there are threads on that as well as various...
Others with more experience will chime in (I'm a recent used owner), But I'm hearing oil changes at 7k, brakes at 1800-200k, the two issues above...
Hey, I resemble that remark!
Thx Mendel.
Oops, I did this today. I had a funny feeling this wasn't a good idea. I think maybe the engine sounded different or responded differently....
OP, I anticipate you can just sell that car in 4 years and take driverless taxis everywhere. I anticipate doing that. Otherwise..buying any car...
Yeah, the mechanic said 'lose oil', so I guess leak was a misnomer. I'm using Mobil 1. I'll do every 7,500 (except this one...a. already set...
So I can run my 12v until it's absolute toast and won't hold a charge, and still get a jump and drive home? Cool.

That is my assessment exactly. (but probably not 2014, because of depreciation costs)
It sounds like no one so far is regretting doing 7,500 or even higher oci. How does Toyota define use, exactly? In the big thread about the...
My mechanic wants me to change the oil every 3,000 miles to prevent my Prius from being a leaker. True or old wives tale? Also, data is great If...
I'm confused! I thought everyone around here was changing those at 200;000 Miles ? By brake service, do you mean replacing the brakes ?
Depreciation issues level out almost flat after the third year. So, the cost per year (over the life of the car) is about the same during the 3rd...
LOL !
Tideland (?), >> "there is a manual release for the hatchback" Thanks for that! Would make great sticky!! A question: >> "If you take care of...
Yep, that's my plan.
Yep!
Wow, you can't kill a Prius gas mileage! I was actually worried about my speeding ways. Turns out, they're not costing me much in gas money. !!
