I'm just so glad we no longer get notices for timing chain
replacement ... with our Prius. How about you?

You would also no longer get notices for timing belt OR chain
replacements for many, many other cars.

Again, the initial assertion was that the Prius is somehow special
because it doesn't use a timing belt--ignoring the fact that many, many
other cars also don't use timing belts.

Those who would claim that the Prius is special on the basis of its
using a timing chain are tossing around bullshit and/or sticking their
heads in the sand, trying to rationalize their purchase of a Prius over
other cars.

The real question is, why the need to rationalize your purchase of a
Prius?

What a happy coincidence ... we replace the Camry with a Prius and
suddenly, like a switch, no more timing chain notices. Good car, the
Prius.

The Prius has fewer parts; is quieter than any car other than the
electrics; has better fuel efficiency than any other gasser or diesel
with equivalent payload; and continues to get excellent ratings from
Consumer Reports for both new and used car. In fact, it remains a
Consumer Reports recommended:

But please keep 'tilting at windmills' by dear friend, Don Quixote.
Your unsubstantiated claims, so old and thread-bear, are so easy, so
simple to refute by citing credible sources ... of which you have none
but inflated claims. What a joy toy you are ... so simple.

I have to admit a certain wicket pleasure at your grief ... but then
you keep coming back for more 'whack a mole.' <GRINS>

I used to think Prius skeptics were just venal, not transparently,
stupid. Please, please, please, don't give up as we need the practice.

And your stated conclusion is that because of that, the Prius is
superior to other cars.

Really.
