If you have never heard of it you can see a video about it from fox news here <a href="http://www.auto-facts.org/water4gas-scam.html" rel="nofollow"> water4gas videos</a>. There is also a video about a 94 escort that gets 60 mpg. This car would be whole lot cheaper to repair if it was in an accident then a hybrid.

The insurance paid most of it -- I only paid the deducible on my policy. I do not think my Prius has a higher insurance premium than a regular Camry. I'd buy another Prius when the new comes out.

Does your car insurance cost more for the Hybrid than a non hybrid based on the expense to repair? Any other negative you have seen with the Hybrid car? Michael

All the insurance paperwork is done and they already started working. They are a very big and reputable bodyshop in the area. I guess my point was that you'd think they should have this kind of expertise (to handle the battery etc.) already. $8000 is a major repair no matter how you look at it. ;) It was a very low speed accident -- but I did hit a wall not another car, and hence damaging the rear door. If this were to happen on a Corolla, I think the rear bumper will be able to stop the car -- no need for such expensive repairs. cheers Michael JerryW,
