    Hit 50K on my Prius and about to hit my 3rd anniversary next week, December 31st, when I first brought it home from the dealer New Year's Eve 2009. (Friend took the pic while I was driving :))
    Looking forward to the next 50K+ miles!

    Congrats! May you have many more - or get a great price with you sell or trade the car.

    Sorry, goofed on the first reply...

    I generally hate to brag or one-up, but when it comes to our Prius (2010 Gen III model 5) I have no problem -

    After three years (October 1, 2009) we registered 75,200 trouble-free miles (I didn't bother to make a picture). We're looking for at least 75000 more. So there.

After three years (October 7, 2012), we logged 75,235 trouble-free miles (we had 1 accident which wasn't the car's fault). We're looking for 75000 more over the next three years. So there.

    Congrats, My Prius Five lives in New York, yesterday my last lease payment (36 of 36) was made, so now I will buy the Prius I have been driving for three years for the buyout $ 19.094 plus tax ! This will be the first money I have paid for the car, as my employer leases it for me. So my new rius Five of 2010 vintage came with a 3year test drive, and now with 35K on it I get a massive discount. Simply the best way to buy the best car. The photo is what the Prius looks like parked at night with the lights off 3M 680 Reflective tape down the sides and rear in white is all but invisible in daylight, and a pair of 1/4" and 1/8th Inch Blue stripes along the sides crease and the rear liftgate. In the age of Drivers distracted by texting, cell phone calls, nav systems, etc. being seen is step #1 in accident avoidance. 2010 prius_005.JPG 2010 prius_005.JPG 2010 prius_005.JPG 2010 prius_005.JPG

    Hmmmm, Probably not a bad first impression if the person not paying attention to their driving catches a glimpse of me.

    Congrats!!!

    I am a few miles away from 100,000 miles on my 2010 Prius 4. I have had zero repairs. I put 305,000 on my last Toyota and plan to do the same with this car.
