Aren't there "bugs" in first year model?  What might they be?

From what I hear, the battery in the Prius is warranted for 10 years by
Toyota.
That seems a bit much.  I'm old enough to remember J.C. Penney's had a
lifetime battery (free replacement) as did Firestone (I think it was them).

Does anyone know if the accessories sold by Coastal Tech conflict with
warrantees? I am interested in a couple of the devices that they have
developed, and I may purchase them. But I would less inclined if they void

I have just discovered this newsgroup, so please forgive me if I ask
questions that have been raised before. I would like to hear about your
experience with gas mileage. Since picking up my '05 Prius, I have filled it

Anyone know why manufacturers dont use more body panels, especially on the
Prius, to save weight, hence fuel. I understand a number of the Prius panels

How do I defeat that???

I picking up my Prius this week and was wondering if anyone had experience
with using their credit card to pay for a portion of the car.  I remember a

off if they let me charge a few thousand at least I ...

Some are say there a waiting list and some say they test drive and then
drive off with there own two housrs later. What the story?

What are people's experiences with the Prius with air conditioing?
I've read that the gas engine needs to run for the A/C to work, so

the A/C is used much of the year?  Normally if you're sitting in

Hi group,
I own a 2001 Prius and I've been totally happy with it (although I'm envious
of 04 owners!). My only disappointment has been with the rate of wear and
tear on the tires. The car has about 40,000 miles on it, and I've had to
