no.

i can't afford it. i couldn't afford it in the first place. if i didn't have it, i may be a lot happier in my life right now. instead, i'm broke with a high car payment.

if i could afford it, sure. i love my prius. hopefully i could afford a trd suspension too.

That sucks, sometimes it is better to cut your losses and sell it to get rid of the payment. Buy a cheap 10 year old car and save some money. I sort of learned my lesson when I was 19 and bought my first car, but it wasn't the payment that was killing me, it was insurance. I hope everything works out.

Definitely!!! My wife and I are currently discussing adding a second prii to the family !!!

Maybe, but only if it's a Plug-in that has power seats and a moonroof.

Most likely we'll go for a hybrid/plug-in minivan next, since the kids aren't getting smaller.

Love my Prius and when the wife gets tired of her Buick Rendevous (20/26) there will be a new Prius beside the older one!

Like many others, I already did by another Prius, a second one for my wife.

Hopefully our Prii will last for many years to come, but if the need arose, I'd definitely get another Prius. Tho' I'm holding out for a PHEV version

Some people just want to see that Senior Prius poster, don't you think?

Not only yes, but F*** YES!

As we are downsizing/simplifying/whatever you call voluntary cutbacks in income, we aren't going to be replacing our other car too quickly, though DH wants a little truck (pssst: Toyota, how about a little hybrid truck? come on, you can do this)

galaxee · 10-23-2007, 11:35 PM

we'll see at 250k miles.

Exactly. At some point, a car is cheaper to replace than repair. But I've seen many labours of love where an apparent wreck is restored to good-as-new, so it's possible for a car to last a very long time. If you're not a stickler for authentic restoration with original parts, even a Prius could be made better than new.
