We don’t speak about the animated series here

Ahh, so still an extremely stupid reason to flash your weapon.

Thanks for the in depth response explaining the pros and cons. I actually do most of my car work myself, having done time in a Honda dealership, but also with my time in there I still remember us oil techs not being allowed to work on the hybrids oil changes for that exact reason. They’d have to go to a higher tech with the experience working with them. I don’t think I would want to test my luck.

Thanks for the insight. I guess thats the P from PHEV, there’s just so many acronyms now I’m losing track.

Not familiar with these newer hybrids, is this a plug in scenario or closer to the older Toyota hybrids where the battery recharges through driving?
