Are you able to drive a 2003 Prius with a failing battery pack?
(or will it drive like a regular car)

Has anyone replaced the battery pack on theirs?

(I know toyota will replace for 3k but there are cheaper DIY kits out there)

sorry if this has been posted before
if so please post a link to thread/answer
