"In March when gas prices were surging we decided to move from an Audi that got 16 miles/gal. to one that did better. We decided on the Prius as it seemed economical with few inconveniences. Purchasing was a challange as the first dealer we visited was a Toyota dealer and he wanted just a few thousand dollars less for a 2009 than he did for a 2012. We looked further and found a 2009 at a non-Toyota dealer for $5,000 less than the Toyota dealer wanted. We purchased it and are happy with the choice. The interior is well appointed with most controls on the dash and on the steering column. The car is comfortable and quiet and averages 50 mpg! Sometimes more, rarely less. Another good part: no plug-in charging. The car recharges itself constantly. Its a little different looking, but we really like it and recommend it."

"Best gas mileage of any car I have ever owned! I can now fill up 2x's a week, as opposed to every day in my SUV."

"Having been a Honda fan for many years, we changed to Toyota. Honda air conditioning was not made for the South Florida Heat ! We returned our 2009 Civic Hybrid for that reason only. The car did achieve the 40 MPG's, except for the 90 degrees plus days. The Civic Hybrid could take 10 - 12 Minutes to cool down, and the Prius takes less than three. Here in S. FL that is a BIG factor. Another factor for consideration, The Hybrid Civic has not increased in price. Really no difference in price from 2009 to the 2012. This means they will be worth less year after year. Toyota now has three different Prius models to chose from, top selling Hybrid, and increasing prices, FYI. With gas prices increasing for sure there will be a limited supply and hefty prices"

"About 4 times a year, I travel to Phoenix, buying things for my ebay biz and visiting grandkids. When there, I often drive my daughter-in-law's Prius. What a super car, smooth and quiet, and every time I see that control panel showing 46 or 48 mpg, well, it does my old heart good. Can't carry lumber, can't carry furniture, can't carry a lot of what keeps me driving a van at home, but it's super for groceries and grandkids and a day's worth of things for me to re-sell. We live 13 miles from the edge of town, out here in West Texas. A Prius would be the best 2nd vehicle for us and I think we have to have one when our next vehicle dies."

"I traded in my Yukon for a prius.... Hard to do because I am used to the large 4x4. However, I am glad I did because I am saving over 400 per month on gas... That includes a car payment I didn't have previously! Best decision I've made in awhile!!"

"First of all, the fuel economy is amazing. The transition between the thermal engine and the electrical one is smooth and easy. It is a very well equipped car and all the controls come out very handy when you need them. Very easy and pleasant to drive, surprising performance for a small engine. Only regret : miss a bluetooth connection for the sound system so I wouldn't have to connect my iphone to the auxilary. I can't really find anything else bad to say about it."
