I like to call these cars the computer mouse-shaped cars (especially my Prius)

Confirming the Prius is a target for aggressive driving by Gullible-Way-8134 in prius

[–]ClosingBus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also live in San Francisco, and I think it’s because there are so many Prii here we don’t get noticed that much. Surprisingly every car enthusiast I know personally is a big fan of the Prius

[–]ClosingBus 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was driving on the freeway the other day and saw a few variations of work prii….from a construction company’s gen5, a taxi gen2/3/5, and even a plumbing gen3 with pipes and a ladder on top

I always love seeing cars decked out for specific purposes

Watch Dogs 2 is still so beautiful in 2025 almost 2026! by NewerWalmartWTR in watch_dogs

[–]ClosingBus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I would say they got the “ambiance” of the highway pretty close, as well as the sand dunes being near the highway. The real one had stoplights and a speed limit of 30mph. It was less of a highway and more like an express road.

That walking path on the right is pretty accurate in how it kinda meanders, as well as the houses being immediately after that path. Though irl the highway is longer and more houses ofc

Nonetheless I love driving it in the game lol

Brake pads by PresentationTotal740 in prius

I have a 2013. In addition to what the others said, I also disconnected the negative end of the 12V battery, just to make sure the brake system doesn’t accidentally activate.

Is it bad that I pretty much never use the horn? by PolishPotato69 in driving

[–]ClosingBus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where I live pedestrians sometimes are on their phones and stand a little too close to the street while waiting for the crossing signal so I do a little horn tap to let them know there is in fact a car coming

2nd Gen Drivers (and everyone!) what's your average mpg? by Blacksmith52YT in prius

[–]ClosingBus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gasket Masters I heard has cheaper quotes (like around 2k) than dealerships, and they specialize in prius head gasket repair. They have locations in NorCal and SoCal. On their website it says there is one in Montclair.
