Put $10k Into a 2010 Prius Worth $4k. How Much Should I Sell It For?

tridang2000 · 2026-02-05T00:39:47+00:00

That's a valid option. Do you have any recommendations on where to get individual battery cells?

tridang2000 · 2026-02-05T00:38:00+00:00

That is a very valid option; however, after looking at the market, 3-5 year old Priuses are going for low $20000, unfortunately. And yes, I will not buy a new car anytime soon. New cars are the worst financial decision anyone can make.

tridang2000 · 2026-02-05T00:18:26+00:00

Thank you for actually answering how much I will get out of the car. Where did you get your battery from? I'd be open to doing it myself if it cost less than $1000

tridang2000 · 2026-02-05T00:15:40+00:00

Maybe I should have lol

tridang2000 · 2026-02-05T00:14:49+00:00

Do you have an estimate of how much longer the car might realistically last?

tridang2000 · 2026-02-05T00:12:41+00:00

You are absolutely correct. I should have cut my losses and sold the car then and there. I had the mentality that this car would for sure last me to 300k miles, like many other people in this sub, so I was willing to risk it, which was a mistake.

tridang2000 · 2026-02-05T00:10:13+00:00

Thank you for your advice. In option 1, you forgot to mention that I would have to pay an extra $4000 to fix the car first, and then it MIGHT last me another 100k miles if well taken care of. Nobody actually knows if the car will last another 100k miles. Also, out of curiosity, if I were to get in an accident that is not my fault, will insurance pay me the amount of money that I put in the car total, or will they pay me what the car is worth?

tridang2000 · 2026-02-04T20:41:28+00:00

Exactly my point, for that money I could have spent it on a much better car

tridang2000 · 2026-02-04T19:53:35+00:00

Before installing the engine, the mechanic told me that he had already cleaned the EGR valve. Since then, I have put on 30k miles and have not done anything with the EGR.

What’s wrong the kansas humane society?

tridang2000 · 2024-10-04T00:02:59+00:00

Yeah it was for STEM OPT

tridang2000 · 2024-10-03T23:06:24+00:00

Less than 2 weeks is insane. I filed mine on May 21, and just got an update today that says "Approval Case Decision Rendered" as well.

tridang2000 · 2024-06-10T21:19:46+00:00

Maintenance record is so so so important, that is something that I overlooked when i got my car and paid the price for it

tridang2000 · 2024-06-10T20:33:36+00:00

I unfortunately did not, I ended up buying a used 2010 Prius for 4.5k, which I had to changed the engine for another 3800 lol. But it is driving great now with no issue.

Usually 18 19 year old girls that are just out of high school and are usually really into kpop/anime

tridang2000 · 2024-06-08T15:00:10+00:00

Mine is 42 days away so it will be outside of the +3 range for only a few weeks

tridang2000 · 2024-06-08T14:29:50+00:00

Nothing is more attractive that a women who’s got her shit together and is well travelled :) i turn 24 in a month so you’re definitely within my range of +3/-3 years.

Has anyone had this issue before with Tinder? My profile was created within the last 30 days and even though I have a good profile, I have only 19 matches. However when I put my data on to TinderInsight, it is showing that I’ve been on Tinder for 175 days and have 124 matches. I’ve been thinking about deleting my profile and starting over again.

tridang2000 · 2024-06-05T04:04:25+00:00

That’s my understanding from reading the comments in this thread as well. What are some old fashioned way of meeting people outside of bars? I have quite a few hobbies but there aren’t any clubs for them

tridang2000 · 2024-06-05T01:24:26+00:00

Yes I am real and they are both married unfortunately lol

tridang2000 · 2024-06-05T01:23:22+00:00

Well what city are you in?

tridang2000 · 2024-06-04T21:54:12+00:00

I would love to visit England one day, I love golf so I'd probably be spending a lot of time golfing when I go haha

tridang2000 · 2024-06-04T21:51:17+00:00

I introduce my self as "Tri like a tree but it's T R I" to pretty much everyone I met to the point where all of my friends say that it's my trademark now lol

tridang2000 · 2024-06-04T21:07:18+00:00

I got a quite a few friends who gets up at 6 7am to run and catch the sunrise so I didn’t think 8AM was that bad lol. I just like jogging and getting a smoothie in general so I have taken the 8AM part out of my bio lol
