NO RESERVE!
I have owned this very clean fully loaded Toyota Prius for many years. The car has been great but will need some minor work. We had planned on keeping the car and had a complete service performed recently. The main reason for the service is because we started getting battery faults. I took the car to get the battery checked and they said the battery tested fine that the issue was the computer. (When at the shop a tree fell and hit the hood. This is why it has a black hood currently)After that shopI then took the car to Toyota and in fact the batteries computer was going bad and was replaced. Toyota also said both batteries were weak the 12volt and the hybrid battery. The 12volt battery was replaced and the hybrid battery rebuilt.(This car is loaded with GPS, leather, Rear view camera, Heated Seats, PW, PDL, Airbags Front, Side, Rear)
PLEASE READ THIS NEXT PART!I made a videoprior to finding out the hybrid battery needed to be rebuilt. During the video I state I'm not sure what the issue was but that since has been corrected. I also went on and fixed the air so the air works fine.
(I WILL ADD THE VIDEO 10/20/2016)
I will list what the car needs now and what has been fixed below.

2006 Prius Overview
The Toyota Prius is more than a car.It's a phenomenon.It's proof that more people than Toyota imagined want to drive cars with significantly improved fuel economy and radically less environmental impact.Toyota has boosted production to keep up with the demand, and the 2006 model benefits from the addition of new advanced airbags and other safety technology plus new comfort and convenience features.This second-generation Prius, introduced as a 2004 model, is larger than the original, and is now a midsize car.It's roomy, with adult-size back seats and lots of cargo space.It's pleasant to look at, with sleek, futuristic styling, easy to spot in a parking lot.
The Prius is rated 60/51 mpg City/Highway by the federal government's Environmental Protection Agency, with a Combined rating of 55 mpg.You're more likely to see less, maybe 41 to 48 mpg.Don't blame the manufacturer for the difference.Hybrid powerplants do well in EPA testing and your driving style will determine your mileage.
The real justification to buy a Prius is its extremely low emissions.The Prius produces almost no pollution and is one of the most environmentally friendly vehicles you can drive.It's an excellent choice for buyers who want to reduce air pollution and America's dependence on oil.The Prius isn't cheap, but it's an amazing piece of engineering.
It's important to understand that the Prius is not an electric car.You never plug it in.And there's no worry about driving beyond the range of the battery.A small, highly efficient four-cylinder gasoline engine charges the battery as you drive.No special knowledge is needed to drive this car.It works just like a regular car: You get in, you twist the key, you put the lever in Drive and you go.When it gets low on gas, you fill it up.
The Prius is the best-selling gas-electric hybrid in the United States and in the world and it's only gaining in popularity.When it debuted as a compact in 2001, Toyota sold just 5,600 in the U.S.By 2003, U.S.sales had expanded to nearly 25,000.For 2004, Toyota redesigned the Prius, turning it into midsize car and completely re-engineering its mechanical and electrical systems.It's now much more attractive to many more people.Toyota sold nearly 54,000 Prius models in the U.S.in 2004 and nearly 108,000 in 2005.It was praised by the press and was named 2004 North American Car of the Year by a jury of 50 independent automotive journalists, including the editor of New Car Test Drive.
The 2006 Toyota Prius is not only an impressive technological statement, it's a car that's easy to like and live with.
For 2006, the headlights and taillights have been redesigned, the interior has been improved with nicer materials and more features.A host of safety improvements for 2006 make this feature-packed technological wonder that much more enticing.Among them: new advanced airbags, a tire-pressure monitor, and an optional rear back-up camera.
FeaturesSafety Features
Anti-lock brakesABS brakes automatically sense when a tire has stopped rotating under extreme braking, and will modulate the brake pressure to allow the tire to rotate. This increases the vehicles ability to turn while braking.
Front-impact airbagsFront-impact airbags for the driver and passenger have been designed to protect the head during a frontal crash.
PretensionersSeatbelt pretensioners automatically tighten seatbelts to place the occupant in the optimal seating position during a collision.
Security systemThe vehicle is equipped with an ignition disable device that will prevent the engine from starting if the correct original manufacturer key is not used.
PLEASE REMEMBER
THE PARTS IN THE VIDEO ARE NOW INSTALLED. THE LIGHT ON THE DASH ARE ALL GONE BUT THE MAINT. REQUIRED LIGHT. I CALLED TOYOTA AND THEY SAID SINCE THE BATTERY HAS BEEN REPAIRED IT MIGHT NEED TO BE RESET. HE ALSO TOLD ME TO CHANGE THE OIL AND SEE IF IT GOES AWAY. I WILL CHANGE THE OIL THIS WEEKEND AND SEE AND IF NOT I WILL TAKE IT TO BE SCANNED.
