  • Great - 2004 Toyota Prius
    By -

    In practice Car provides about 400 miles per galon (considering combined rural and highway streets). Even though is not a family car, it provide enough space for a family of five. Also the fact that back seats cand bend provides aditional space when you need it. Music sound system is also good quality.

  • Terrific Car! - 2004 Toyota Prius

  • THE COMMUTERS CAR - 2004 Toyota Prius
    By -

    I love this car. It is heaven-sent for commuters...and the environment. The slower and more clogged the roadway, the better the mileage, and the bigger my smile. I know I am the only one content to be in a freeway creep. I turn up the stereo, turn the air on recirculate (so Im not breathing everyones exhaust), and creep along at 99 mpg. That is the key to getting 60 mpg. Those early morning and evening traffic snarls make up for the lower mpg that you get when traveling at higher speeds. This car is super, and if gas climbs to $3.00 per gallon this summer as predicted, we will be even happier to own a fuel efficient vehicle.

  • Love This Car - 2004 Toyota Prius
    By -

    The Prius is absolutely wonderful! Fun to drive, more roomy than our old Honda Accord, a georgous, deep red color. Were getting 46 miles to the gallon and it feels great to know that the emissions are almost zero. Has lots of zip and a real sports car feel. Love it!

  • EPA test lies to buyers - 2004 Toyota Prius
    By -

    Gas millage advertised on EPA is a fraud. Actual millage about 32 to 40 if your lucky, called EPA and they said Toyota gave them figures? I asked them to show me that my car delivers 60/51. I would be happy to get 50/41. I think Toyota has these big figures on the cars so they can sell them fast.

    Lots of leg room front and back. Air conditioner very efficient for hot weather Sacramento. Playing with center display screen and trying to squeeze out better and better mpg after a while is a distraction. Best of four cars that I own.

  • GREAT CAR - 2004 Toyota Prius
    By -

    A GREAT CAR FOR MOST PEOPLE. IT IS A MUCH BETTER ALL A ROUND CAR THAN WE THOUGHT IT WOULD BE. AFTER THE TEST DRIVE WE DIDNT THINK IT WOULD BE A CAR TO USE ON LONG TRIPS, BUT NOW THAT WE HAVE IT AND HAVE BEEN ON SHORT TRIPS WE THINK ITS FINE. WE ARE PLANNING TO TAKE IT CROSS COUNTRY THIS YEAR.

  • Great car plus milage - 2004 Toyota Prius
    By -

    Bought this sight unseen after new york auto show in 2003. Wanted commuter car with good features. Mileage depends on the driver. Drive it hard, and you get less.

  • Worth The Wait - 2004 Toyota Prius
    By -

    Waited 6 months to get it but it was worth every second of it. Performance is very good, has a great cool factor. Getting about 51 MPG on mostly backroads with hills. What can I say, I love it.
