Buying Used Hybrid Cars
If anyone is considering buying used hybrid cars they should think of a few things. These cars start run drive and handle differently then the conventional engine your used to.
My friend has a Toyota Prius and my first experiences in this car were interesting to say the least. First when he pressed “start” there was not any noise what so ever and we were in gear backing out of our parking space. He thought it was great however I did not like it so much. The other thing to consider is its tough to find a stylish Hybrid. Most of these cars were not designed to be sporty or elegant.
There are some exceptions however. The American Hybrids are very nice looking cars. They drive well to for that matter. Most people are unaware that you can get an Escalade or Tahoe Hybrid. In general I think it is a time to support American car companies. At this point not only are they better quality but if your buying new you may as well support the Manufactures in your country. Well except for FORD that is. Or Fraud as I call them. There are several things to be aware of when buying a used hybrid.
One is that this is not a tried and true technology. The Conventional engine has been around forever and you know what to expect on a high mileage car. Hybrids are probably going to bring a whole new plethora of problems when they reach one hundred and fifty thousand miles where as a conventional engine has already been there and done that. We know what to expect. Some things that seem simple may slip through the cracks by companies that pay more attention to profit rather then quality.
For instance look at the problem Toyota is having with the accelerator pedal. Look and practically everything FORD does. Sub par quality and a ridiculous price tags. I think we all can find some humility that the Toyota Prius is supposed to be so wonderful for the Environment yet the Battery is made with a type of Nickel that is extremely toxic. So much so that the plant that produces it has no living vegetative or animal life within a thirty mile radius. Here is my suggestion for buying a Hybrid or any Auto for that matter. Only buy Italian, German or General Motors engineering.
