2009 Toyota Prius W/ Lojack, Very Low Miles, Negotiable Price! on 2040-cars
Springfield, Virginia, United States
2009 Prius 5D Hatchback Standard w/ Lojack - $16,000/obo Come get your very own quintessential hybrid. This Prius has very low mileage and is very clean. Very easy and comfortable to drive. The first thing you'll notice is how very QUIET it is to drive with its Hybrid-Synergy drive. The Prius is certified as a Super Ultra Low Emission Vehicle (SULEV) and Advanced Technology Partial Zero Emission Vehicle (AT-PZEV). 5-star front-crash safety rating with front SRS and side-curtain airbags. The electric motor and gas engine produces a combined 110HP, but at a stop, the electric motor alone produces 295 lb-ft of torque, meaning you actually get good acceleration. The continuously variable transmission allows the car to run at the most efficient RPM while never feeling the transmission shift. I am the original owner of this Prius that has less than 38,000 miles (I was lucky enough to live near work). The backup camera takes some getting used to but lets you parallel park without having to “feel” the other cars. Smart Key entry system is to die for (never take your keys out of your pocket/bag again!!) It also has an included LoJack system to let you know your car has moved before you even find out (including if your car is ever towed). Never been in an accident, though there is one minor dent in the rear quarter panel from an inconsiderate parking garage patron (visible in the photos). The 10 gallon fuel tank means it will never cost a lot to fill the tank. This is a very nice car to own, though it's time for me to transition to being a one-car family. If my family still needed two cars, I would never be getting rid of this car. My driving has yielded an actual 44 MPG over its life, with about 50/50 highway/city driving. If you frequently drive in moderate traffic (averaging 40MPH or so), you can actually get 75MPG on the highway (the only benefit to being stuck in traffic). I have kept this car very clean and cleaned it some more so the lucky new owner can enjoy it in the same condition I got it in. Features include: 2009 Prius - Magnetic Gray Metallic (including package 4) JBL premium sound with multi-disc CD changer including MP3/WMA and aux input, back-up camera, HID headlamps, power and heated side mirrors, auto-dimming rear-view mirror, bluetooth phone integration, Homelink universal garage door remote, power windows, power locks, ABS traction control system, cloth seats, anti-theft system, integrated fog lamps, cruise control, vehicle stability control, 60/40 split folding rear seats, tilt steering with climate and audio controls integrated, direct tire pressure monitoring system. Don't worry about being hassled at a dealership, e-mail Jesse or call: 434-535-2460 to make an offer, ask a question, or to get a copy of the Carfax report. We can talk about shipping, but local pickup would be far easier. |

Impala crashes into Land Cruiser... to hide from a cheetah
Fri, 12 Jul 2013What would you do if a wild animal jumped into your vehicle through an open window during an African safari? What if said animal was an impala being chased by cheetahs? Though the scenario seems unbelievable, that's just what happened to a group of tourists in Kruger National Park in South Africa, and it was all caught on video.
With the tour groups stopped, a motorist with a video camera handy happens to catch the unlikely sight of a herd of impalas (not that kind of Impala) jumping over the tarmac while being followed, quickly of course, by two cheetahs. The feline predators thought they had cornered one impala and were closing in for the kill when it jumped through the open window of a Toyota Land Cruiser Prado - South Africa's version of the Lexus GX. Fortunately for the occupants of said vehicle, the cheetahs did not follow.
A short while later, one of the occupants in the Toyota fearlessly opens a door to let the poor animal out. It must have been its lucky day, because the cheetahs didn't take pursuit. Check out the circle life get interrupted by this traffic jam in the video below.
Mazda ad showing Facebook updates while driving criticized by Senate committee [w/video]
Sat, 08 Feb 2014Senate Commerce Committee Chairman Jay Rockefeller, D-WV, held an all-day summit on Thursday to discuss the dangers of using modern technology while driving, during which an ad that Mazda aired during the Super Bowl was used as an example of the worrisome future towards which we're headed. While seemingly innocuous at first glance, the ad, which can be seen below, shows a brief glimpse of a driver using the Mazda Connect infotainment system in a Mazda3 to check/update his Facebook page while driving down the road.
Officials from major communications companies like Samsung, Google and Apple attended the summit, as well as representatives from automakers including General Motors and Toyota. A representative from Mazda was not present despite the company's own currently available technology being used as the poster child for the issues being discussed.
According to Automotive News, Senator Rockefeller warned the automaker and communication execs on hand that he will propose legislation to regulate the use of technology while driving if they don't work together to implement their own standards more quickly. Michael Robinson, GM's vice president of sustainability and global regulatory affairs, argued that his company has had distracted driving guidelines in place for 15 years since the advent of its OnStar system, noting that the technology in question has also helped the automaker save lives through automatic crash detection and calls to 911.
Are you the facelifted Toyota Yaris?
Fri, 28 Mar 2014As basic transportation goes, there's not a lot to complain about with the Toyota Yaris. The five-door hatch (not to mention its JDM cousin, the Vitz) are due for upgrades, though, having toddled along in its current form since the 2011 model year. Now, we have what looks to be leaked images of the new Yaris, straight from a Japanese brochure.
The next-gen Yaris was previewed in Frankfurt by the Yaris Hybrid-R Concept. Surprisingly, both the standard version and the RS (shown above) share a strong resemblance with the Frankfurt concept. That gaping lower intake remains, while a pointy, sharp front end shares a resemblance with the new Aygo city car (though the Yaris won't have a giant X on its face like its smaller cousin). The lower intake is flanked by a pair of what we're guessing are non-functional grilles, which house the fog lights. There are only a few small images of the rear of the car, which looks more like an evolution of the current five-door hatch.
The interior looks rather racy, with a small, thick-rimmed, leather-wrapped steering wheel and black cloth seats with red contrast stitching. There's a bright red button to the right of the steering wheel on this right-hand-drive JDM model, which could indicate the arrival of pushbutton start. Under hood of this Mazda-built Toyota should be a Mazda Skyactiv engine. That gives us hope that this latest Toyota compact will be imbued with some sense of driving fun.
