    Hey folks,

    Drove home in a prius c 3 today, after owning a new ford fiesta for 6 mos and having the transmission give out twice...

    Couldn't believe my luck. Loved the fiesta (was getting around 37 mpg with it, and had a great feel to it, with a moon roof and heated seats), until I got two transmission malfunctions in a week's period of time...after onlt ~6k mi on it! Pursued the lemon law, and they offered to settle for a few grand. Used the money towards the new prius c 3 (black w/ moon roof). It feels only a bit weaker so far, but am hoping for a solid, dependable ride from here on out! Was hard to leave the fiesta in the toyota lot earlier today, but it is what it is...

    Congrats on the c! :) Sorry to hear about your Fiesta. :(

    I'm glad I didn't go for that car now; I was going to go and get the 2011 last year, but decided to wait for the 2012. Then I heard about the Prius c and....here I am.
