Ya mean ya don’t want to put some Marvin’s mystery oil in it to make it run better and care for that nice high mileage car?

Lol...MSDS sheet: mineral oil, red coloring and pig fat.....what a joke.

, I'm no longer working from home and have a 20 mile commute (mostly highway). My normal vehicle is an Xterra which gets lousy gas mileage. My wife and I initially were considering an electric only vehicle. We needed to purchase used as well. Long story short, we decided the Prius line was a quality known quantity with great reviews.
. ;lol
There are other good options.did you consider a used volt(best of both worlds) Electric when you have it ,Gas when you need it. Iv seen some nice used ones for around 12K. Was considering one myself but have very little use for a commuter car. If they had this powertrain in an SUV, id already have one.

Good suggestion. A friend picked one up a few months ago coming off of a 3 yr lease. He got a heckuva deal on a low mileage car.
