    Thinking of picking up 2017 Prius Two (Eco?).

    -Two vs Two Eco, which did you get? Any regrets for not getting the other? I know the difference. Just curious as to which is more popular on the forum.

    -2017 has good incentives going right now. Any reason to go with 2018?

    Thanks!

    I got a 2017 Two in October 2016. I do not see the benefit of the Eco. The Two has the time-proven NiMH battery.& a spare tire.

    My only regret in that regard, is there were added safety features added midway through 2017 & into 2018. I may have waited had I known. I though the blind spot monitor might be useful but it was not available then.

    Because the 2016 Level Two ECO did not have TSS-P, we now own a 2017 Prius Prime Plus. It more than shames the Level Two ECO even without charging.

    Think long term.

    @SkyHigh : Follow the above advice, there's a "report" button, somewhere around the initial post. Click on that, explain about the duplicate thread.

    The simpler approach would be to have stuck with this one, just report it as being in the wrong forum, but it is what it is.

    Woaa Hoss!

    We can use this thread to beat up the original post with a hard core, pro Prius Prime sales job. In effect, treating the OP as a bit of 'troll bait' to sharpen our rhetorical knives. It could be a clever plan by our moderators to make us more efficient in dealing with the usual suspects. <grins>

    My Trim Two was still less than your Prime Plus. And I got it October 2016 before your Prime was available.
