 I just added up the items in the list, and the sum seems wrong. AFAIK, they do not take tax breaks into account. | |

Friends: 0 | The sum of the cost of ownership categories for the Prius is $3150 more than the total listed at the bottom. I guess they didn't have a category for tax breaks, though you could make an argument that it should be subtracted from depreciation as it lowers the net cost of buying the new car. |
