Another high mileage 3rd gen

So as the title and flair suggests, I am looking at buying a Prius. I found this one that seems to have had some work done to hedge against the notorious head gasket issues I’ve read about, but my question is if anyone has experience with doing these maintenance items and seeing a significant increase in HG life span?

I have never owned Prius and I’m just now really starting to learn the ins and outs of this vehicle, so any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Also, just as a general gut check, does this seem like a fair price range from the hive mind? Located in East Tennessee. From what I’ve been looking at this really doesn’t seem outlandish, but again, I have pretty limited knowledge of these things.

Thanks all!

Hey all, I did a oopsie. Well, the previous owners did by burying this propane line less than 5”, and then I found it while putting in a French drain.

I know this is a modification subreddit, and while I don’t intended to modify this particular tool, I’m really hoping someone has had some experience with it and could tell me if it’s worth the money. I’m all for saving a little money, but not trying to risk it on a propane line if it’s known to be less than useable/reliable.

Thanks!
