    I purchased the car to do gig work. I deliver food, and packages plus do Uber X during peak hours.

    Purchased 2022 Prius LE on 9/11/2023
    miles: 38,325
    lasted serviced: 08/28/2023
    current mileage: 42,742

    Milages drove 5,000

    I am really enjoying the car and am noticing that it has changed my whole driving style. The gas mileage is amazing as expected. What has surprised me is the pick up from traffic lights is good. As I do 75% city driving the mpg is averaging 58mpg.

    The only thing I miss and driving 3000 miles a month you notice is the lack of some features on my lower trim model LE.

    Those being:

    No trunk release button.
    No auto headlights.
    Center console tray under the gear shift is just not deep enough and things are always flying out...

    Late Gen 4 LE was one of the best safety equipped base models out there, maybe the best. Spare tire, blind spot, lane, parking assist, front and rear parking sensors, all around sonar, visibility, headroom, etc. Coupled with your high mpg without plugging in and large rear storage area, I think is pretty good.
