I purchased my first hybrid, a Prius, and could not be happier. It gets incredible gas mileage, saving me money. It has been extremely reliable and dependable, and I have only needed to service it per a manufacturer defect, and that was free of charge. It is super comfy, both front seats and back. The back seats can be folded down, increasing storage in the back. I've fit a whole dining room table + chairs in this car!

I have owned this vehicle for 5 years and including the mileage from the previous owner, it has nearly 200,000 miles on it. Even at that high mileage, it runs wonderfully and still gets great mileage. With regular maintenance I'm sure it will get to 275,000 or more miles. It takes some time to get to highway speed but once at speed it stays where I need it to. Its practical, easy to drive, and great for carpooling.
