    I wonder how c did in California...California I think of covering big distances where regular Prius is ideal.

    A few people on Craigslist have been posting fair prices but I need to make sure I’ll be okay with the size of the C. I am test driving one tomorrow.

    luggage space might be compromised, but if you're not making airport runs, i suppose that isn't too important. customers get to choose the car, yes?

    Just to touch base with everyone. I ended up selling the Prius and bought a 2014 Corolla S Plus with 54k miles for $8300 at a dealer auction. I will dearly miss my Prius that I averaged 50 MPG on but I needed more car for my money. Lets hope I do not regret this decision. I appreciate everyones input throughout this forum and hope one day I purchase another Prius or even better, an EV.

    I lived in LA(The Valley Really)
    In Summer 2012 for 3 months during a study away/internship program.
    The Summers in L.A. are cooler than Summers here in Pennsylvania from experience.
    Southern California does not have skin melting Summers like Texas, Florida, etc.
