It was actually above freezing today! One more blast of cold air and

Lost coolant may not be obvious just by looking in the radiator if there is an

ROFL!!! Pity the poor Prius! All it does is get 50 mpg and rarely needs
repairs. The Koreans just came out with a cheaper pure electric that goes 95
miles between charges and has a 110v outlet so you can use it during power
outages.

Pressurized coolant system in the a.m. may or may not be a problem. Definitive

Pressurized hoses on a cold engine is not a good sign. This is typical of a
head problem.
If it is more convenient, you can "borrow" a cooling system pressure tester
from most FLAPS for free. Actually, they charge it to your credit card when
you get it and refund to your card when you return it.
I thought that a pressurized system in the AM is the result of a cracked
head or leaking head gasket.
