TOYOTA CAR STORIES

I have a 2001 Prius. I love it. I went skiing with my father and my two brothers...and our skis and luggage. This is four guysı 6' tall with our skis and luggage on a driving trip to Colorado. The car was comfortable and roomy for the drive there and back to Houston. We got about 45 mpg on the trip. On the interstate in Colorado heading north to Denver the speed limit is 75.... and if the flow of traffic wasn't 85 people were actually driving 95... and the Prius cruised at 95 mph with the rest of traffic. The low drag and spoiler made it very stable and not buffeted by wind or the draft of other vehicles.
I am now at about 130,000 miles on my car and I intend to drive it a million miles.
I replaced the main battery at about 110,000 and that was expensive...but it is worth it to me.
I always have the service done at the dealer and the service is always excellent.
The car still looks and feels new after 7 years.
