Used Toyota Prius for Sale in Houston, TX

This car is great. I get about 50 miles per gallon on the freeway and over 40 miles per gallon on streets, and unlike an ordinary gas car, it actually gets better mileage than normal in stop-and-go traffic. The worst case for the mileage is actually short trips under 5 minutes, which unfortunately is how I use it most often, but I still get over 40 miles per gallon. The trunk is spacious, the seats are comfortable, and the rear-view camera changes parallel parking from 'nightmare' to 'easy'. Now, I've got a few things to say about the 2007 Prius based on my experience with my last vehicle, which was a 2008 Prius. First of all, the car is really light, so it's easy to jack up to change a tire. Second of all, the engine is configured in such a way that changing your own oil is pretty easy, and there is a ton of help out there. Thirdly, this car is extremely safe. I lost my 2008 Prius going through an intersection when another driver ran a red light while speeding, and the other vehicle hit the front driver's side. I didn't even need to go to the hospital. I walked away from an accident that hit right where I was and totaled the car, despite a lack of side airbags. That, combined with the rear-view camera, makes me feel very safe and secure in my 2007 Prius. The only thing better would be a car that didn't require any fuel at all.

I enjoyed this car upon first purchasing it. I could get 50 miles per gallon, which saved me time, gas and money as a college student. The Prius is very spacious also, great for traveling or moving from dorm to dorm. However, when the car started to have issues, I really realized what I'd gotten myself into. A Prius is just like a computer, and it truly confusing to diagnose and repair. For example, the car has two batteries. And one of them is in the trunk. No kidding.
