"Bumper" and tail light assembly. $655 in parts, the rest in labor. But i digress . . . I got a Toyota Pruis for a loan car. I hadn't considered a hybrid when I bought my car. I would not consider anything else now. What a wonderful car. Wikipedia has a great article, well worth the read: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toyota_Prius |

Wikipedia has a great article, well worth the read:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toyota_Prius- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - We've had a Lexus 400H for two years now. Spectacular technology, but most of the benefit from a fuel economy standpoint is realized around town. (Where my wide does most of her driving, so that's OK). The unappreciated upside; when you hit the throttle hard the thing runs like a raped ape. Much, much, better acceleration than the standard V6 (which we test drove in the Highlander package). Real life economy is probably about 8 mpg better than straight gas in town and 4-5 better than straight gas on the highway. We usually achieve about 24 mpg real life average, with most of that in stop and start city traffic. Not bad for a medium size, comfortable vehicle. |
