There's 1000+ Toyota Prius out there running openpilot. Many of them 10 years old.

Toyota engineers made a steering API for a useless nudge feature nobody wanted. Little did they know this enabled the cars to come to life years later with open-source software.

@___Harald___ How many total miles have been driven with Openpilot on Prius models, and what's the oldest reliably running example?
