You get a star for using logic!

Plain Greek yogurt is better.

so in other words, a typical prius owner.

He's looking into buying, or currently owns a Prius. Therefore, it's his sole responsibility to save the world.

I don't understand why Mr. Butthurt in Oregon thinks CarFax should have to give money to someone for a problem that's entirely CAPTCHA's doing, and probably a computer-generated accident at that.

"here" ...exactly. Depending on your location, that rule isn't true. BC is allowed, IIRC 6 forward white lights in addition to your amber markers. Ontario has no law as far as I know, and they're lax about it in the northern/rural areas. I'm sure you'd get pulled over driving down the 400 series, but places like my

actually I work at Toyota Sandy Springs and this is a common thing to have glitches read in properly as a battery, And throw a battery in the repair. Wouldn't suprise me one bit if his light comes back on and he doesn't share that info.

When I saw the headline, I thought it must have been a good cleaning...happy to know I wasn't wrong. My friend has an all electric Prius and it stopped working one day, he was about to scrap it for about 30% of it's value (was only about a year old at the time) I told him if he bought all the booze, I'd atleast help

7/10 not too bad.

Hell, the regular '87 Grand National was quicker than a 'Vette to 60.

Gotta maintain the hierarchy, amiright? Why else was the Fiero killed before it reached its full potential? Why did GM underrate the performance of the Syclone and Typhoon, then kill them after just one year?

The steel prices were 'leave it be' as well.

This article would have been better if it were written around Black Friday before I bought 5 3TB Seagate Barracudas.

I understand that others have counter-examples, but every drive I've ever had catastrophically fail on me (3) has been a Seagate. Of course, one of those was the 3 TB, about 2 years ago. That was such a freaking disaster; I'd only had it for 2 months and had to pay $700 to get the data recovered from it by a lab,

Rule #1 for me.. don't buy Seagate harddrives.. esp after the clusterfuck that was a bad firmware on their previous 3TB drives where users lost whole drives at a time. There's one of them in this comment thread.

As one of the Backblaze reps said above, the moral to take away from this is that all hard drives fail and you should always have a (if not many) backup!

Bought 3 3TB Seagate drives, and 2 out of the 3 have failed a little after a year of each one purchased. Was able to get replacements through the warranties but I am now backing them all up on WD drives as a precaution.

I see Seagate is maintaining its sterling reputation. Which is unfortunate, because I remember years ago they were one of the best brands for consumer HDDs.

I can pretty much agree with this even just using anecdotal evidence... I bought 6 of the Seagate 3TB drives that they're talking about, and 5 out of 6 failed within two years. That was a joy.
