Would you buy a Prius again?

Would you buy a Prius again? Why or why not? :idea:

Yup. In fact, I'll probably be selling my Prius since I'm having trouble selling my Audi. When the Audi finally sells, I'll buy another Prius.

Why? The Prius is fun to drive, it's economical, and environmentally friendly. It's got more room inside than my A4, my friends can get in and out with relative ease and for me, I've always liked to be towards the front of the pack when it comes to advanced technology.

I've essentially had a 7,000 mile (almost free if I can sell it right) trial run and like what I see.

For sure. I love my Prius! It's exactly what we wanted from a car, and it's easier on the environment. It's easy and fun to drive, and I can put any large item (aka trail bike) I want in the back. It's comfortable and quiet. And the price was very good for what you get.

Hell Yea. I love my Prius. The only thing I would do different is to get a package 6.

By all means! The car is great to drive and did I mention 50+MPG?

My wife would kill me.
It was an arm twist for the package 4.

I'm making 2X payments and should have mine paid off in a couple of years. I'll be looking for a 2007 or 08 Prius then.

The only vehicle I'd rather have is an EV-1 or RAV-EV. Unfortunately, both GM and Toyota killed their EV programs.

I just wish I could convince my son to give up his monster Toyota 4Runner 4WD V8 for a Prius....but he won't even sit in one!!
