ddessy says "It feels good to drive this car!" about Toyota Prius - 2006

When I first got my Prius, I worried that a "hybrid" may not have the get-up-and-go that my Camry did. I was pleasantly surprised. This car drives better than I expected. And it feels good to save money in gas. I have been getting 47 MPG consistently. It is not for a large family, but my carseat fits comfortably in the back....

Every time I say, fill it. The man at the pump will say, it only took $12.00. I said that's why I love my car!!!!!

kwags1220 says "I miss my Prius!" about Toyota Prius - 2006

I was extremely disappointed when I had to part with my Prius. The car got absolutely fantastic mileage, handled nicely, and was a pleasure to drive. I loved how quiet it was. Stopped on a dime. Handled snow and ice surprisingly well. The backup camera is really great - you *have* to remember it has a small lens, though. Sometimes a bug will crawl right in front of the camera, and it will absolutely jolt you when you see a huge huge huge spider in the rearview camera (though it's hilarious in retrospect). I cannot wait to get back into one!...

GRANNY123 says "EVERYONE'S 1ST CAR SHOULD BE A PRIUS!" about Toyota Prius - 2006

GRANNY123 — Tue, 25 Nov 2008 23:36:36 GMT

This is our 2nd Toyota Prius-This one's name is Penelope Prius 2. It is the first time in my life I have ever loved a car enough to give it a name. They are very comfortable even for big people (as both of us are). Who could complain of the excellent gas mileage. We have averaged 47 to 56 MPG. I don't trust the gas mileage on the screen so I figure up the actual MPG every fill up and record it. If my husband didn't have such a heavy foot we would get better mileage. We did not get the GPS already installed as it added $4000 to the cost. We purchased one that sits on the dash on a sand bag thingie for &249 instead. Works just as well. All I can say is why are you waiting to buy a Prius? How can you afford not to buy one? LOVE LOVE LOVE my PRIUS!!!...

Tajmania says "Best purchasing decision I made w/ financial and social benefits" about Toyota Prius - 2006

Tajmania — Wed, 17 Sep 2008 21:22:54 GMT

Great investment - nice to have the engine shutdown at stoplights while the other gas guzzlers are running. The Prius is a quiet running car - due to size it is very nimble with a good turning radius. The safety features are good, with airbags, and it's very spacious for the weekend home and garden store trips. Surprisingly spacious with the split fold down seats. Averages about 52 City/Highway driving combined.

I bought the 2006 low mileage Toyotal Prius used, but I love this car. Would absolutely buy new and add to the family.

margiefink says "We love saving gas and enjoying the comfort and specs." about Toyota Prius - 2006

margiefink — Tue, 03 Jun 2008 00:13:07 GMT

We had Corollas before, and we've cut our gas budget in half with a Prius. It drives more like an SUV or van than a car. It's easy to drive, and after learning some tricks, we're getting around 50 miles a gallon. We've been able to cram all kinds of stuff into it and still been comfortable on long vacations trips or short trips to Lowes picking up large renovation items. We love all the technology, especially the Blue Tooth and the backup camera, although loading the phone book and using voice commands isn't really user-friendly. ...

lisalovesmickey says "I was skeptical, but now I'm this car's biggest fan" about Toyota Prius - 2006

I was skeptical about owning a hybrid, but I chose the car we bought last time, so this time it was my partner's turn, and she wanted a Prius. We've had this car for over a year now, and boy has she proven me wrong! I love this car! It is fun and quick to drive, and even though I have a significant commute, I feel like I hardly ever have to stop at the gas station. We got a package that includes the keyless system, and I thought it would be kind of a stupid perk, but now I have gotten completely spoiled by it. Using actual keys when I drive our other car seems so old-fashioned. It's awfully convenient (especially when carrying bags of groceries and such) not to have to dig keys out of my pocket. I also really appreciate all of the volume and temperature controls on the steering wheel.

The disadvantages that I have seen to this car so far are two. First, you can pretty much only have it serviced at a Toyota dealership since the hybrid system is so complicated. This means...

tomsg says "So good, you won't even realize it is green" about Toyota Prius - 2006

I have owned a Prius in Japan-- and it really is better there -- more standard equipment and different tuning. I have the 2006 I bought new here and I still do love it. I have not had a single problem in the almost 2 years I have owned it. I average about 51 MPG in the summer and about 48 in the winter. It has adequate power, good interior room, a good radio./

The only thing I would improve is to put wider tires for a little better handling.

This should also be a great used car.

lnmbusiness says "would buy it again tomorrow" about Toyota Prius - 2006

lnmbusiness — Mon, 17 Dec 2007 22:04:49 GMT

I had an accident in this car and I was so happy they were able to rebuild it. If they told me it was totaled I would have bought another one. I also drive a Jeep, so I ca rotate fun with practicality. Be sure to read your owner's manual - there are lots of great tips and tricks that are very different fom any other car on the market. I have driven LOTS of vehicles and this and Jeep's are my favorites....
