Yahooo! - 2001 Toyota Prius
By beczter - August 24 - 10:00 amThis is a great car to own. Not only is it fun to drive with suprisingly good pick-up on freeways, its gas mileage makes me smile as I see all of the hefty SUVs filling up at the station. If you are a commuter, this is the perfect vehicle. And you will waste no fuel when sitting in stopped traffic! This car requires the same maintenance as any other non-hybrid.

By Breathe-easier - May 31 - 10:00 amWhy more people are not buying these is beyond me. A wonderful, reliable car. Nice to pass by the gas pumps and laugh.

One of first ones bought. - 2001 Toyota Prius
By Ken Jacobi - May 18 - 2:00 amThe car has done great and we average 46 to 48 mpg overall mileage. The only problem we have had is with tires. They have not held up well at all however Toyoto has replaced them twice at no charge trying to find the problem.

2001 prius - 2001 Toyota Prius
By donna - April 5 - 5:00 pmI love my baby prius. It is fun to drive, fun to play with the computer screen, and it is fun to pass up the gas stations. It had some major problems when I first got it, but the dealership was very good at fixing the issues. My next car will be a prius.

Hi-Tech Wonder - 2001 Toyota Prius
By reallysmartguy - November 22 - 10:00 amThe Prius is a gas to drive, but doesnt need much gas. It has deceptively good pickup for such a small car. During the spring and fall Ive been getting over 50mpg, that drops down to about 48 when I have to use the AC in the summer or when I make short trips in the winter and require long warmups.

Everyone should drive a Prius! - 2001 Toyota Prius
By Pheebie - December 29 - 10:00 amI love my Prius. I average 49 mpg and can zip anywhere (and no, I never have to "plug in"... this must be the biggest misconception about hybrid cards). And its FAST! I once got a ticket for going 90+. Not that I endorse that... but it proves the Prius is peppy. Not to mention, Toyota pays for ALL regular maintenence. I havent had to put an extra dime into my car. Do one for the planet. Buy a Prius!!

Wow, is this a great car! - 2001 Toyota Prius
By O Picher - July 5 - 10:00 amI have owned this car for nearly 3 years now, and I just love it. A mini Lexus in its interior styling. Well- engineered and runs like a top. The acceleration is impressive (it has two engines, after all). Floor it, and leave the other cars in the dust. As for the eco-side of this, all I can say is this: once you sit at a stop light, with your car being dead quiet, you notice all the other cars around you still belching out exhaust. All cars should be this way. I wouldnt recommend it as a first car, but it has made a great second car.

Sparky - 2001 Toyota Prius
By Gary Sanchez - February 22 - 10:00 amThis car is a wonder! I have not had one single problem with this vehicle. The quality of the fit and finish is second to none. The economy and ecology are more advanced than most cars on the road today. Once you drive it you begin to drive wonder why this technology hasnt become common with more vehicles on the road today. When in stop and go traffic with only the electric motor on, you understand just how wasteful gas only cars are. I have 75000+ miles on this car and will buy the 2004 Prius with every option I can get.
