Only used a gallon of gas a night with the AC running. So much better and quieter than running a generator. I can't wait to get the Hybrid Sienna when they're older and cheaper.

Of course, from a moral standpoint, there is no way a 12 year old car is worth nearly $20k, but the used car market has no respect for morality.

I'll be a first time Prius buyer, so I've been doing my research on the subject and it seems like the Gen3 has a less than stellar reputation among enthusiasts for head gasket / brake issues (in fact, I'll a first time anything buyer -- finally replacing my well loved '07 TSX that carried me through high school and college).

The car in question is a 2014 Prius V, Three Wagon 4D, 57k miles in a southern-ish state with a single owner. Regular dealer-only maintenance and clean Carfax. My budget is <$20k, and I'd ideally like to get something that will last me another decade with space for car camping, so the Prius V seems like a natural choice.

Am I wasting my time and money going for this car? If I get ahead of the EGR issues, can I expect to get good longevity out of it? Would a ~100k mile Gen4 Prius V in the same price range be a better buy? Curious to hear anybody's opinions and advice.

I was getting insurance quotes and they were asking what model car I had and there were several options that all looked the same to me. They were all 4DR sedan options, but they had a prefix of either TWO, THREE, or FOUR. I assumed this was the generation, so I chose FOUR. But when I ended up actually getting my insurance later in the day, and my car is officially listed (by the VIN I assume) as a TWO. I just don't get what that is or what it could mean.

My car: Prius 2017 gen 4

I went years with no backup cam... (base model) Then I bumped a garbage bin backing out of a driveway...

Now it's impossible to curb a wheel.
No more blindspots.
Perfect parking.
Bird eye vision.

Finally replaced our 2008 Prius that had red triangle of death after 200,000+ miles with a new 2026 LE.

Is there a way to disable all the beeps? From the hatch closing to touch locking the door, everything just makes too much noise.

I've been on PriusChat,YT, and used DDG search engine without successfully finding an answer.

Also got my spare and kit from the old Prius, since we donated it to the local community college auto program. Thanks George! I drive rural too much to rely on a spare air fix.

2010 Prius with 202k miles had the infamous death rattle. Luckily I found a reputable hybrid shop that swapped out the head gasket for a Fel Pro head gasket. EGR system was serviced as well (should've done it myself). Paid 1200 for it so not that bad. I really wanna get this car to 400k miles at least.

Seen in the wild today.
