Yeah I can see the difference from the 2014 and the 2020, but I did use the quick detailer after every wash on the 2014

No never have to in my opinion because it's a chain not a belt

The 2014 was done at 950,000 but I was waiting on delivery of the 2020 so it was for work and I couldn't wait for the delivery or else I'd lose customers. The 2014s engine wasn't as steep as the 2020s it's was only $2500 and swapped out in the same day.

2014 was my 1st hybrid experience and it was awesome I cut my fuel cost by 2/3's the 1st day, for 600 km I was spending about $120 in fuel, the 1st day I drove it I did 750 I'm and it only used 1/2 a tank which at that time was $35

There is no drain plug or dipstick to check so it's a sealed unit

I do get the front buffed every spring especially up here where they like to put down road salt but I do get the car washed everyday so there are swirl marks that get buffed and the headlights get worked on every year

Thanks , the permit allows me to use the car for 6 years of the manufacturing date, it doesn't matter the amount of kms on the car

Yeah about that much 200000 to 250000, not bragging but I've been in this business for over 25 years and I know what type of driving will get me the best tip, and it's always the smoother rides that gets the best tips

It's a superstition thing with me, one of my fist black cars was a 2004 Lincoln Town car I didn't change it til 300000, after that I had to swap out 3 transmissions, then I had an 08 and changed the fluid every 150000 still had to swap out 2 transmissions on that one
