    Gonna go take a look. Would like to know what you all think. Pictures look good. Description:

    2015 toyota prius v $14,999

    condition: excellent
    One owner, non-smoking. This Prius V, trim level 4, is in great condition. It's clean, has a clean title, and has always been super reliable. I just replaced the windshield last week. Tires are Michelin from Costco with loads of tread, which means the tire hazard warranty transfers. The interior looks almost brand new. Includes Entune premium audio with navigation and the app suite. Heated power seats, push button start. Is it sexy? Maybe. Is it awesome? Yea, it's pretty awesome. Looks & drives great, mostly highway miles, NO accidents, one owner, satellite radio, seats like new, very clean interior, well maintained.”

    Appreciate any advice.

    OK '15 has the higher crash marks. Looks are different after the change.

    Depends on what you want a car to do for you. My '12 does what I wanted it to do with minimum outlay. A collection of people's thoughts about the v (note the lower case for the wagon) Prius v Likes and Dislikes - mikefocke2.

    sounds like you've never owned a prius. make sure you like it a lot for 15k. long test drive, check the mpg's.

    entire is crap. gps is garbage, but useable. phone with google is much better. no android or CarPlay.

    do you have a hybrid mechanic? dealers are expensive.

    v is a nice car, all the best!(y)

    First time buyer. I have driven them. Rented them for driving Uber so have driven them several hundred miles.
