    Hi Y'all. new owner of a 2020 XLE AWDe. Little background, I'm in my twenties, I always wanted a sports car, such as a 86/FRS/BRZ, Lexus IS, Acura TLX, etc. A Prius wouldn't even be on my shopping list. But I had a realization, I don't go to tracks so having sports car would be unnecessary, and although i want to unleash my inner Fast and Furious, lets be realistic, I wouldn't be street racing anyone. But after test driving one, it's more than what a commuter needs. Great MPG, spacious for 5 people, very little maintenance (1 year oil changes) , and regen brakes that will extend the life of the mechanical brakes. I had it over a week now and I like it.

    Welcome to the club.

    I'm on my second Prius for many reasons. The only thing that I'm not thrilled with with my 2019 is the tire noise from the very hard rubber.
