We have only owned for one month it's much better than we thought it would be. At 6'2' 215 I have enough head room in front seat but not the back, my wife is 5'3" so she is fine. Average 49mpg, happy with that. It is worth the money.
40k miles of great driving

Our 2004 Prius is our fourth hybrid. '03 Civic Hybrid 5spd, '02 Insight CVT,'03 Civic Hybrid CVT. The Civic 5 spd was traded for the Civic CVT after a deer strike. All have over 40k miles now. The Prius is the best car we have owned. Rides better than our Mercedes or Volvo did. Very quiet except climbing mountains. Prius engine noise higher than our other hybrids while climbing steep grades. Excellent in snow on windy, hilly WV roads. Acceleration, power excellent, 92 mph passing on I-68 7% upgrade. Mileage: 61.7 (steady 55 mph 400 miles, 82 deg, in VA and NC), 55 mpg (2 tanks), 5 tanks 50 mpg in summer all in WV mountains. Winter avg is about 43 mpg. Lowest tank 38 mpg, heavily loaded in winter

Ive been driving this car for 11 months. I drove to Richmond Hills GA, a distance of 421 miles on 10.6 gals of gas. On interstate 95 it handle very well was able to cruise at the posted speed limits of 65 to 70 miles with no effort. In town driving Ive received 49 mpg by staying off the interstate. When I drive in town and the interstate I average 43.3 mpg. I find it a fun car to drive. I like it clean lines, it a car who time has come. Im looking forward to driving it cross-country. Ive been driving for 55 years and truly enjoy driving this car. Before I purchase this car I drove a Buick Park Avenue Ultra for over 100000 miles on it.
Great automobile

In hilly Vermont I can average over 55mpg on long trips. The Prius is a delight to drive.
