, Great detective work. But there is still a lesson to be learned about this kind of new technology, it can get dated quickly, it can be expensive to repair, things can easily go wrong.
The way the media handles winter weather is seriously a joke. They overhype it and state the obvious over and over.
I'm afraid that someday it will be like the boy who cried wolf. There will indeed be something truly dangerous in store and people will be so desensitized to their reporting that most will ignore it.
———————————————— I agree. However, I have to give them credit because their predictions are a lot better than they used to be (not 100% better but better) but they don’t have to harp on it. I’m tired of seeing 3 segments of weather in a 30 minute news cast.

Apparently the replacement is a DIY process with careful instructions
they include. I'm sure most of the instructions is making all the wiring
safe for working on the battery.

There is a time when you have to pull the trigger and go with it....you have to do that these days with computers, phones, TVs etc......but IMHO not with EVs yet. I bought a pocket calculator when they first came out, it cost $40 which would be like $200 today, and all it did was add, subtract and multiply. Probably bought it too soon, if I waited 50 years I could buy one for $5, and it would do a lot more.
The first pocket calculator I saw in person was bought by one of my coworkers back in the 70s, and as I recall he paid closer to $200 than $100.
If you have a smartphone, you already have a very powerful pocket calculator. And if the calculator that comes with the phone (Android or iOS) isn't powerful enough, you can easily download very powerful scientific calculators. Just as you can pay a lot of money for a standalone OBD II scan code reader, or just buy a bluetooth attachment ($12) and download free (or very low cost) software on your smartphone.

Impressed with the performance on snowy and icy roads today with the new CrossClimate2 tires on my wife's CR-V. Temperature was about 10 degrees when we were on the alternately packed and slushy roads. Even backed out of our icy driveway without drama. These tires also are good with wet roads and in dry conditions, as shown in a Tire Rack 2-minute video. Below that an Uber driver who has 50k on his CC2 tires, and they look like they still have a lot of life left. Finally, there's a Michelin-sponsored test on whether a worn CC2 can be as good as a new budget tire.

Most people don't. I used them almost daily when I was working full time.
I did use algebra and trig in my work, and even on rare occasions some calculus. But I really used Fibonacci Trees and other balanced binary trees more than calculus. Things that I didn't learn in school, but were very necessary in my line of work.

Years ago something must have crapped out on the plow/salt spreader truck the borough sent around because there were more than the usual number of small piles of salt on the streets in my hood. I remember seeing a guy with a pickup shoveling the piles of salt into it. At first I thought it was a truck the borough sent out but I was wrong. When I passed the pickup it said something like, “Ralph’s Snow Removal Service”. I doubt they could nab him for stealing because he was actually providing a service.

I had the non supercharged version in my Mark VIII. That’s the reason I admire the engine but those terminators were very expensive hand built I think. I was wondering how it would perform with a modern turbo.

This site seemed to be pretty honest about an estimate to replace a Prius battery: Generally, you’ll be looking at about $2,400 - $2,700 for a new Prius battery pack excluding labor costs. With parts and labor costs included, you should expect price ranges going as high as $5,000 or more.

Well, we’re probably halfway there but I doubt I’ll be able to call you when it happens. If you can stick around for the remaining half I’ll have one of my grandsons call you when it’s time to celebrate that occasion.

Generally, you’ll be looking at about $2,400 - $2,700 for a new Prius battery pack excluding labor costs. With parts and labor costs included, you should expect price ranges going as high as $5,000 or more.
Note the; "or more".
