  Second Prius - 2004 Toyota Prius
  By Herbdelis - October 4 - 10:00 am

  Just call us Priusian~bought the 1st model in 01, had to get this one! DH commutes 90 miles roundtrip and loves it. Only drawback was the dealer, ordered the wrong car (we were 1st in line for the car in the city) and since we are in Fl, had no choice but to accept or wait an unknown time. Other than that, love passing the gas stations and getting over 500 miles per tank.

  Arnies Next Car - 2004 Toyota Prius
  By RWW - September 8 - 10:00 am

  First impressions of a 2004 (BG pack): Lovely interior with great space and stylish grey pseudo-suede fabric. Almost excessive rear leg room. Good visibility, even through hatchback. Nav system is refined, with split- screen option. Bluetooth works well (now I need a new phone and plan). Verbal command is good at generating unintended humor, but most key controls are on to the wheel. Reasonable pickup by modest Saab 9000 standards, firm suspension, solid handling, tight turning radius, good brakes. Quiet at highway speeds. Soft hiccup when the 1.5 liter engine engages. Sound system is fine-wonderful and easy to control from the wheel.

  I found this car to be very easy to handle. I am short and the higher seat makes it easy to judge distance.

  Luxury AND Economy! - 2004 Toyota Prius
  By Tekonah - September 2 - 2:00 am

  After more than 6000 miles of interstate driving, I found this the most exciting and pleasurable car of the more than 20 (mostly Toyotas) I have owned. The only disappointment: mileage per gallon is only as good as my 2001 Prius which had 30,000 miles on it.

  Best car ever - 2004 Toyota Prius
  By MARVENE - August 28 - 10:00 am

  I beleive the Prius is by far the most confortable small car ever. We have a great time filling it up with gas. It takes just a few seconds. All of this plus, it is a good looking car and fun to drive.

  Love my new Prius - 2004 Toyota Prius
  By Kutya - August 28 - 10:00 am

  Havent had it long enough to tell about reliability and check mileage in all conditions, but it is so much fun to drive. It is the quietest car Ive ever been in. I espeically like to watch the fuel l.e.d. screen tell me Im getting 99.9 mpg when my foot comes off the gas pedal. It was worth the 4 month wait, but I paid a premium over msrp. All dealers in the pacific northwest are charging a mark-up and nobody is negotiating price.

  The best car I ever had. Fun to drive, all kinds of new ideas (electronic throttle, smart enter, digital spedometer and odometer, touch screen for controls, etc.), great fuel economy, "stealth mode" (electric only mode). This is the car of the future, and I congratulate Toyota on its vision and commitment to excellence.

  2004 Prius - 2004 Toyota Prius
  By strata - August 21 - 10:20 am

  My 2004 Prius was bought in Oct 03 because of the claim of outstanding mileage, the federal tax incentive and I was driving a large crewcab pickup. Mileage range from the high 30s in the coldest (below -0 F.) months to the low 50s once the weather gets warmer in the spring. It gets the best mileage in city driving about 40 mph. It is fairly comfortable in day to day commuting. The hatchback feature is very useful with the extra room with the rear seats folded down. The biggest gripes are the light beige cloth upholstery that show dirt easy and the couple of times that it left me stranded with computer glitches once at dealer when they were doing a recall and once 300 miles away.
