Yeah, but from the way it is shaped it shouldn't be detectable on radar, or sonar.

Prius battery is something like $4500 worth. Expensive to replace.
I have a friend in Ohio that got an older one basically for free as it was
battery replacement time. He did the job, that's how I know how much.
Fuggly little car. Quick, but I can't get past the UGLY.

Yeah. That wasn't the experience he relayed to me in September 2019. Not even remotely close to that total. $1500 is dirt cheap......

In regard to the prius needing a new battery/ Someone bought one cheap because it supposedly needed batteries, but it turned out to be corroded connections. Cleaned all of them and drove off down the road. Checking the Basics is always good.
