@ 3:17 your problem is the Audi 2.8 is almost 20 years old & an endless money pit.
Why do you wear sun glasses in a dark room?
Really? Change the fuel filter without even diagnosing the problem first? Throwing parts at a problem rarely solves it and usually just costs more money in the long run…
If you know what you are doing, buying a used Prius can be a good deal. I have one. They are arguably the most reliable car out there. I have never heard of a Prius getting 15 mpg. I don't think that is a common problem. There is some quirks, like the non-standard regular battery, and the problems when the main battery starts to go. But if you drive them easy for mileage, they will go a very long ways, get 45mpg or better most of the time, even in really cold weather. I live North of Buffalo, ny.
I drove for a place with the 2009 Prius in their fleet. They were great at first, but towards 200k, they began to stall and break down for no apparent reason. Sometimes they would only start after we towed them back to the yard. Keep in mind this was driving for 8-16 hours each day, but also with regular maintenance. But before 100k, they were a joy to drive.
Hey scotty, how you know a lot
There are excellent aftermarket batteries for Prius that are diy for any competent individual
1:50 my 2007 Honda Fit manual hit 175k with no issues besides coil packs and an alternator. Sadly, it was totalled in an accident after 11 years. Still had the original clutch… And even coolant lol
Love all of your videos Scotty but back in 2016, me and my wife bought a used 2013 Prius with about 48k miles. Drove it all the way up to Alaska from massachusetts – drove up in negative temperature weather for a couple of years and then we did a road trip back from Alaska to Massachusetts. Car has required MINIMAL maintenance such as oil changes, putting on new brake pads and rotors and doing an air filter. Still to this day gets great gas mileage, still has great reliability. Not all used Prius’s can be bad 🙂
