Toyota Prius - 2007 Review

I have always driven compact cars because I couldn't afford anything else, but now I drive a Prius by choice.  This car has everything I have ever wanted in a previous vehicle and didn't have. 

The hatchback and fold down seats have plenty of storage and hauling space, while the hatchback cover keeps things out of sight.  The rear window wiper is the best!  Having snow accumulate on a hatchback window while driving is unnerving, but now I can keep it clean and see what's going on behind me.  The rear camera for reverse is absolutely wonderful, especially in parking lots!

The keyless entry with the engine immobilizer makes it safe in crowded areas and urban parking garages.  I even get the theft deterrent discount on my car insurance.  The 6 CD changer is more than I need, but it's really nice for road trips.  No more worrying about getting a radio station while travelling through several states.

I absolutely love the little tire pressure light!  I had noticed my mileage drop a bit, but once that light came on, I knew the reason and an easy way to correct the problem.  Oh yeah, that dash screen display is out of sight.  You can watch your gas mileage, the outside temperature and the time all at once.

I had to pay more for this vehicle than many on the market, but in gas savings and satisfaction, it is worth every penny!
