Used Toyota Prius for Sale in Detroit, MI

My Prius is amazing because I have driven across the country multiple times and have not had any problems with it. The gas mileage is amazing, and it averages around 50 miles per gallon. The vehicle is super quiet and has different modes to save gas mileage or make the Prius drive faster and more powerful. It's very roomy on the interior, and the cloth seats are the usual standard. I like the roomy hatchback trunk its different and nice. I enjoy the back window windshield wipers as well they come in handy.

Story

I have driven it from Michigan to Florida and back and forth. From the beach to the mountains, and it runs well.

Pros

Some of the best highlights of the car are the gas mileage being extremely high, the car itself is super quiet, the car drives very smooth and nice, the car runs into minimal problems in my experience, car is very roomy on the interior and great for a family or smaller

Cons

Sometimes the car being too quiet is an issue like when backing up, and there are people behind me and don't know my car is turned on. The car was not extremely cheap either. I do not know how much I like having a full synthetic car. A piece underneath the car I've had trouble with, and it is like $500 to get a new one and it's made out of plastic and a small piece under the car.

2011 Toyota Prius - Fuel efficient bastion of reliability.

This Prius delivers great fuel economy in a reliable, versatile package. It averages 50+ miles per gallon overall. It routinely exceeds its 48 mpg highway rating when fully loaded with my family of four, our luggage and gear in the cargo area on road trips in summer heat using the A/C or in the cold using the heating system. We have had no mechanical issues or repairs -- merely regular wear and tear replacements like the tires and 12-volt battery over nearly six years and 66,000 miles to date of ownership.

Story

The wackiness of trying to get the car to understand voice commands and the occasional failure to understand any of us -- along with the navigation system once insisting our destination was reachable via a right turn directly through an off-ramp’s ditch.

Pros

The fantastic fuel economy and stellar reliability are highlights of ownership, and we also appreciate the back-up camera for added rear visibility when backing out of parking spaces or driveways. The cargo area is roomy to hold our family’s luggage when traveling or haul home gardening or warehouse club stock ups or various IKEA purchases.

Cons

How some people react to it on the road or in general when they learn we own a Prius. We’ve encountered the mistaken assumption by others that a hybrid car is a fire hazard or more prone to catching fire than a conventional vehicle. Also, the aggressiveness of pickup or large SUV drivers who think it’s their call in life to tailgate or cut off Prius drivers. Also those who think it’s un-American to drive a hybrid instead of acknowledging global warming. They think saving gas decreases reliance on fossil fuels and foreign oil.
