    I bought Prius two 2 weeks ago and now we are shopping for my wife's car.

    Still debating if she would lease or fianance.

    But I was recommending compact SUVs like Rav4 or Crv but this EV car's mpg is just too good to ignore.

    Since I have base model I was convincing my wife to get Persona si I can switch car later on lol

    But in other hand, I kinda want other maker like Honda CRz or Civic EVs..

    do anyone have multi Prius?

    Yes,

    Almost 2 years ago now, we bought 2 new 2011, Prius II cars. We really love the cost/environmental savings 2 hybrid cars give you AND the Prius is truly highly versatile car, well at least for our needs.

    We have 2 also, we both commute a little bit to work. If you are thinking MPG then another Prius is not a bad choice. Even with my first couple of cars being the CR-X and Civic Si Hatch, it still didn't take me long to walk away from the CR-Z. I couldn't find one good thing about that car after a test drive. For once the car reviews were spot on, "CR-Z set out to be sporty and fuel efficient, but accomplished neither."
    First decide if this second car is truly going to be your wife's car, or are you going to give the Prius to the wife and look for a fun car to drive yourself:D Let the new car bug wear off first, I can relate how excited and how much you love your Prius right now.

    Not under the same roof, but my parents have an '04 and '07 Prius, I have my '10 and my sister has an Insight.

    One is enough for my family.

    I purchased a Prius and 6 months later my wife purchased a Acura ILX Hybrid.

    I like the Prius she is not that thrilled with the Acura.

    She thinks the Plug in Accord with 20 mile EV range would have been a better choice. She likes a bigger car around her for a small skinny gal. The ILX she likes the stereo and Leather seats but thinks the car is to small

    Opposites attract, at least you don't have to worry about her stealing your keys and messing with your MPG:) like mine did until I got a 2nd one solely for me. Now that I have lowered mine, I couldn't pay her to drive it, she's afraid of hitting parking curbs:ROFLMAO:

    Funny but my last car was a stick shift so she would not drive it. :)

    You mentioned looking at compact SUV's........have you looked at all at the V? Sure, no 4WD/AWD, but the mileage can't be beat. When I bought my Prius, my wife remarked that she may want to look at the V in the future when our lease on a CR-V is up.

    0% for 36-48 mos, 0.9% for 60 mos. This applies to Prius & Prius V. For Prius C, its 0% 36 mos only.

    I can't imagine why you would need/want two Priuses, unless all you do is commute. I like diversity in my garage :)

    Diversity is no good if you can't have the car you like all to yourself.

    my daughter and i have pri, my wife likes the hycam. she prefers the size and ride. she still gets 35-45 mpg which is nothing to complain about and we'll be trading in her 08 for a '13 shortly and hope the mpg's are even better.
