I am looking to buy into the Prius line due to their reliability/repairability, mpg, and most importantly long support life.

I love subcompacts, so I am considering a Prius-C. However, I have been avoiding them due to the line being discontinued as of 2019. I worry the parts will become harder and more expensive to find.

Is a Prius-C worth it in 2026, or would I be better off buying a normal Prius of the equivelant year?

EDIT for additional question: Should I avoid gen 3? That's what is most obtainable for me, but I am reading they have some issues with oil and the headgasket.

I am wanting to try more of a plant based diet, but I worry about meeting my calorie needs. I am often very busy and struggle to find time for long meal preps.

My typical diet is to drink a couple of protein and fruit smoothies for my first two meals, then load up for dinner. This works well for me as I can get my meal on the go, then prepare a proper meal at dinner time when I am more free. Admittedly, right now I am eating meats in rice, but I want to experiment with doing lentils instead (2 cup lentil+half a cup of wild rice).

Based on the calculations I made though, I will be intaking at MOST 1,300 calories. 2,000 is closer to what I need right? Any recommendations that aren't super expensive (I am flat broke)? Like some seeds or butters like peanut butter in the smoothie.

I was trying to boost my speed settings, and reduce current and volatage for certain modes, and I am not sure if I had.

After changing the Spd (speed detection) setting up to max, it was at one point going roughly 34mph. However, it also only picked up on extreme speeds and was very inconsistent.

Did I mess up the spedometer, or boost speed? I have reset it for now.
