Given the not-all-that-many miles my wife (and I) drive each year, we will still be operating this TCH (lovely JP) when the next Ice Age arrives ... and I am 'planning ahead'!

Or ... it could just be plain old curiosity ...

One story from the Prius world was that this was experienced by someone who drove over a big enough bump that a wheel was airborne long enough to cause the 'shut-down'.

One thing for sure - manifold airbags and the VDIM system are key reasons for our TCH purchase.
