The Toyota Prius 2nd generation car is a surprisingly and dependable car. I've had it for going on 11 years and it still keeps chugging along well. Like any car it needs maintenance, but I luckily have not had to fix any of the hybrid components of the car. It was advertised as having mileage in the 50s to 60s, which did not pan out in real-world driving. It's more like upper 30s to high 40s, depending on environmental circumstances and the aggressiveness of the driver.

I like how the car is environmentally friendly and great for simply getting around town. I like how it works on the highway as well.
