Would You Buy A Prius Again? (Poll)

Schmika · 11-17-2005, 08:53 AM

If I had the money, I would buy another to have a his and hers.

Yes*

*Assuming Toyotoa, or anyone else for that matter, doesn't put out a "better" one.

It's only going to get better down the road. Who can tell what the hybrid market might be like in the near future (that's also assuming a "hybrid market"). For all we know, (insert manufacturer here) could pull a 80mpg 250HP (insert model name here) out of its ass in 2 or 3 years.

Let me clarify my 'Yes': unless another car comes along that will use available fuel more conservatively than a Prius while maintaining at least the same performance and feature level, I'll buy another Prius...

The poll numbers are jaw-dropping. Danny should forward the poll to J.D Power.

If I had the money I'd buy three '06s instead of just one. I'd store two of them until the 100K extended warranties expired on the first two.

If you don't like the Prius enough to buy one again or to even buy another Hybrid, why on earth are you subscribed to PriusChat and looking through the forums and what not? I thought I would see 0 for a "no" answer.

When one has a truely great experience, one likes to share. Same for a truely bad one, and even a Prius leads to those, too...

I'm actually torn between Yes and I will buy another hybrid. . . I love my prius, but i'd find it hard to not at least look into the Lexus GS hybrid if and when it comes out. . .

Jack 06, you've only been a member of PriusChat for a hair over a month and you've posted 688 posts? (689 after you reply to this

) That's an average of 20 posts a day! What do you do all day??

finman · 11-18-2005, 12:00 PM

Yes and yes: We DID get another...hers! Now my Seaside '04 is referred to as "old blue", next to her silver '05. Go figure.

I think you answered your own question with those stats.

Jack, you're retired/semi-retired right?
