My Experiences:

My brother lives in Alexandria, Virginia.  He works and plays throughout the District.  A couple years ago, he purchased the Toyota Prius.  He was thrilled when he received a tax incentive to do so but he was even more surprised at how quickly he fell in love with the car!  I have only ridden in it a couple of times but the back seat is surpisingly comfortable and roomy for such a small car.  The gas mileage has been fantastic for him.  He averages about 45 miles per gallon when he is traveling in the district and about 40 miles per gallon when he makes the 6 hour drive to our house for the holidays.  Overall, he has been thrilled with the Prius and he has convinced me to strongly consider a hybrid vehicle when it is time for me to make a new purchase.

  20. I looked at these before purchasing my toyota corolla. I also thought they were great, but I settled otherwise. I voted!

  21. Thanks for the information on the Prius. There are conflicting reviews about the mileage but yours sounds more realstic of the ones I've read. Hope your brothers talks you into getting one!!

  22. I have always wanted a Toyota Prius, it's a little small for my need though.

    kateri27 on April 17, 2008 20:06 (reply to this)

  23. I am so leaning towards this car. I saw it when it first came out and fell in love with it, but everyone said it wasn't worth the money, that it didn't get the gas mileage they claimed. Everyone I talk to and all the reviews I read here are telling me they were wrong. if I can't get my Love Bug then this is what I want to get LOL!

  24. I heard this hybrid was a good one. I think you made me think about my gas mileage and now it seems like I'm leaning toward a hybrid car in the future. Sounds too good not to have one in these days of high priced gasoline!
