Welcome back, hey. Some of the same old characters doing disreputable things to (sometimes) otherwise respectable cars.

A new Prius is an efficient time/space management device.

See my car's mod & maintenance thread and my electric bicycle's thread for ongoing projects. I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.

Haha, nice! I needed a new hobby so that will be maximizing MPG on the new car.
