Now, “Discontinued” and “Prius” in the same sentence, that sounds good to me…

How about puke? Once it’s there, it’s there. I remember when I was a kid, I barfed on the back of the driver’s seat of my dad’s car, and a faint stain remained for four years.

Toyota had to recall the automatic prius as a result of police complaining about greenpeace ricing out their prii, thieves discontinuing their trend of stealing prii for their resale value, and the possibility of rust within the engine block causing knock.

I actually like ‘Recall’ it means you get to smugly walk into a dealer service area and get something new (even if its just a stupid sensor or something) from the greedy bastards for free and they are legally required to give it to you :-D

In my Yaris, I have a new, free blower unit, new window and door lock switches, a new clock spring for the steering wheel airbag and new seat tracks and all were free and paid for by the lovely folks at Toyota and the NHTSA ;-)
