My vehicle is a red 2015 Toyota Prius C. It is a 4 door hatchback. As a musician who plays string bass and commutes 30 minutes to school everyday I needed a car with good gas mileage that could fit a large instrument, among other equipment. The Toyota Prius line is also the best for hybrid cars, with the highest gas mileage.

Although I did not care for the exterior profile of the Prius, the inside is roomy for a hybrid vehicle. I have the oil changed regularly in order to prolong the life of the car, and it seems to be working. I have 170,000 miles on the car, and I still get great gas mileage, averaging 42 miles per gallon most of the time. I have had little maintenance on the car except to have the door repaired due to being hit by a neighbor's car. The repair costs were covered by car insurance. I enjoy driving the Prius, and it does have very good acceleration after coming to a stop. I am able to tow a small trailer behind the Prius, giving me a flexibility of hauling items when needed. Most of the time I feel safe driving it, although on busy freeways, the small size makes it seem more vulnerable when large trucks come alongside. All in all, I am very pleased with the car..
