Used Toyota Prius for Sale

We bought a 2005 generation 2 Toyota Prius used in 2009. It had only 50k miles on it and had been well taken care of by an elderly couple who used it as a winter car in Arizona when they would come down as snow birds. We needed something more fuel efficient than our large SUV's we had. It has been a great car, with little to no issues and only minor maintenance. We have driven it across country and frequently take it on long road trips due to gas mileage performance. The vehicle is great for big city driving due to it's great performance in tight spaces....It has been a life saver in parking garages in the Seattle Metro area. The car also handles very well in the snow when we travel up to the mountains, with it's low center of gravity and heavy battery basin, the traction is great. The car has 120k on it now and we anticipate it going to double that in our ownership of the vehicle. For the price we paid 14k I can not think of a better deal on a longer lasting vehicle than what we got with the Prius. We have recommending this vehicle to many friends and some have even ended up buying their own. Newer models though, which makes us think it's time for his and her Prius in the driveway.

While I always found the idea of hybrid cars interesting, I was never truly passionate about them until purchasing this Prius. Not only is the car sleek and serves its purpose comfortably, but the gas mileage it can achieve is phenomenal. On a cross-country move with my husband and two cats, we made literally half the amount of stops for gas that we had to make previously with a different car, and the stops we DID make took less money to fill-up. That's not to mention how nice it was to have a comfortable front seat to sit in with plenty of room for boxes, bags, and two large cat pens all to fit wonderfully. As a "fun-sized" person, the fact that the driver's seat can adjust to suit my height needs makes me love this car more than any I have previously owned.

There is very little for me to dislike about the car. It is comfortable even during multi-day road trips. You can be very lazy when using it because its a push to start and it wirelessly connects to your phone. You just need to have the key in your pocket and the door will automatically unlock for you. The sound system has deep bass despite the lack of sub woofers. One draw back is the car has blind spots out the back due to the shape. The biggest plus is that it is a hybrid so it gets on average 40 miles to each gallon. When you get on a hill you can actually have your gas go farther because the car recharges its batteries though extra resistance on the tires. On rare occasion, the radio will glitch but it normally fixes it self the next time the car is started up.
