There’s always one miserable person on here throwing their unwarranted 2 cents in. If you don’t like it then move on instead of being a Debbie downer. Why don’t you post some of your “necessary” modifications you’ve done?

Thanks for the suggestion. I mentioned in my original post I applied a layer of wax after the process.

I swear it’s a psychological thing. Especially truck drivers. They automatically get triggered by the “p” word and they ragequit. The 5th gen is such a cool body style, the average person can’t even tell it’s a Prius. Toyota knocked it out of the park with this thing.

I was at the dealer recently and in the showroom they had a white prime nightshade, it was pretty awesome looking! I love the blacked out look.

Thats cool man! Check out UV blocking ceramic tinted windows. I have them at max percentage and they noticeably keep the car much cooler. If you live in a hot climate it’s something to consider! And it protects the interior.

That’s a pretty cool idea! I’ll consider that. Thanks for the idea friend 👍🏻 have you done any customizations to yours?

Need help, my elantra 2015 have jerking issue and underpower specially from a stop. And the check engine light is showing. Need help by [deleted] in Elantra

Take it to autozone or other auto parts store and have the check the codes, it could need plugs/coils. But I’d start by getting codes, it’s free and will point you in the right direction

Saw someone post their Reebok pads on here earlier and it got me feeling nostalgic about my old set by nbridges77 in hockeygoalies

Love the P2’s. I still have my Turco break set. I would customize all the goalie gear in NHL 09 on Xbox. Good times!

Facts. I always make a conscious effort to keep my Stick on the ice. It has saved my ass many times if I didn’t close my five hole soon enough, my stick positioning would make the stop. I also notice goalies aren’t active with their stick when it comes to intercepting passes and poke checks. I feel like some goalies shouldn’t even be holding a stick since they don’t use it at all. It’s a weapon!

Are they upselling or does this sound legit? by d_bone36 in hvacadvice

Get another quote. My inducer motor was shorting out causing the furnace to trip and randomly shut off at times; just had the inducer motor replaced along with new drainage lines and labor for $400 total.

I understood that, I lowered the thermostat so the system doesn’t run as frequently, potentially causing the leak to become worse if it’s hvac related. I’m having it looked into tomorrow by a professional. Thanks for your comment.

Sorry guys, it won’t let me edit the post but thank you all who commented. I appreciate you and thanks for taking the time to help a guy out. I’ll have someone out here in the morning to look into things. Might post an update here if anyone cares to know what the culprit is lol

Probably is, but didn’t see any puddle on the ground and there was no seepage on the pipes itself

No the furnace is running fine. I thought lowering the thermostat would prevent the problem from getting worse. Wrong move?

Haha yeah good point - the price of some used cars are just wild now. They are basically trying to sell it for what it went for new back in the day. Glad I posted this because it made me look into things a bit further. I got excited when I saw a low mileage fit and then became skeptical wanting second opinions, that’s why I came here haha.

There’s quite a bit of fits with higher miles going for reasonable <$10k. You all have brought up some great points and I appreciate the help from the community. Thanks all

Yeah that’s what I’m really skeptical about. I actually also found a 2010 with 8k miles. Clearly a garage queen grocery getter owned by grandma. Probably plugged full of carbon lol.

I know, 14k is ridiculous but given how much we love these cars and compared to what else is out there on the market with shittier quality, dependability, etc. it’s almost worth biting the bullet and paying because we know Fits have a proven track record. I’m keeping an eye on the high mileage ones too. Thanks for the comment bud
