I have had my Prius for a little over two months now and have 2100 miles on it. the car is great to drive and I must admit I love it. I bought it to use to run errands and now its my main car. Especially with the ability to use it in the carpool lane as a solo driver. Everything about the car is great. I have no negatives here. I had no idea about all the options that came on it and am very pleased. DVD navigation, keyless start blue tooth etc., all great.

The Prius is a pleasire to drive. It handles very well.The only things I don't like are the rear vision window is too small and has a horizontal streak across it. Also, the windshield wiper control is barely visible because the steering wheel blocks the view to it,

I am getting 45 mpg in hot and humid conditions, expect better when the weather turns cool. I park in the garage to keep prying eyes away! Love it. I have 4 cars, and this is the one I drive the most now.

Great car, an extinction level event for the rest of the industry if they don't move fast. This is a product that is transformative, one that changes your expectations about the entire automobile universe. Case in point is the fact that the computerized control system shuts down the engine when you stop at a light, while the air and radio play on. Why any automobile should have to burn gas while it is not moving forward is a mystery unexceptable trait. The weight distribution is great the handling is nimble, this is one great car!

I really like the 2005 model prius. I got the smart entry which worth the extra money. My only disappointment is the winter driving milage. I get about 40mpg (they boast 50-60mpg). In the summer mpg is about 45. They don't tell you your winter milage will be less due to the fact that the engine must stay on longer in order to keep the interior car temp. warm. But...40 mpg is still great considering the roominess and comfort of this car.
