Used Toyota Prius for Sale in New York, NY

I bought my Prius new in 2004, so it's now 13 years old. The only problems I've had have been with the starter battery (not the big expensive ones). The mileage is still low--just creeping up on 100,000 miles now, and I have it serviced regularly at the dealership. The power outlet may be going bad; I'm not sure yet. The car is reasonably comfortable and, of course, saves a lot of money on gas.

I like that this car is an easy, smooth ride. I have it for years and have no problems with it. When I’m driving it, it’s like I’m floating on a cloud, even though there are a lot of pot holes where I live. This is the most fuel efficient vehicle ever. I almost never have to put gas in it. At times I seem to forget that vehicles run on gas. This car is really easy to park, I never have to take it to the mechanic, except for schedule maintenance, and is very good looking too.

After reading the reviews and inquiring with my coworkers that owned a Prius, and assuring me that they get the 50 mpg, I decided to buy one for myself and one for my daughter. Even the salesman told me that you drive it like a regular car. Well six months later, I now believe that I was lied to or the car was overrated on the ease of getting 50 mpg. The reality is the car computer calculates 3 mpg over of what I actually get, by miles driven verses fuel used. If you drive it normal you get low 40s. To get to the 50s, you need to coast or try to keep it in electric mode as much as possible while everybody else is passing you. You stay busy and it is a headache to drive it to get the miles.
