By ron - December 9 - 5:23 pmThe Prius has been flawless so far and is fun to drive. Navagation system is excellent. Steering wheel controls take some getting usedf to. Keyless entry and starting ver handy. Fold down seats privide a supprisingly large cargo area.

What a Car - 2005 Toyota Prius
By Gary Long - December 5 - 5:50 pmThe Prius is the most Outstanding Car I have ever bought. I have a 2005. It took 9 months to come in but well worth it. I am a loyal Toyota buyer and this is another exceptional car.

The future is here - 2005 Toyota Prius
By writerman - November 28 - 9:30 pmThe Prius must be experienced to be believed! We managed to get our Package #5 Prius at MSRP. It is really fun to drive and has sufficient room for a 65", 250+ pounder - even in the back seat! It feels solid and rides like a much larger vehicle, especially on trips. The most fun is in parking lots, when you drive past pedestrians on electric power. The double-takes are hilarious. Get the Smart Key feature. You never have to take your keys out of your pocket. Also, Toyota has a FREE special road service package for Prius owners and the best passive anti-theft package out there.

Awesome! - 2005 Toyota Prius
By Bub - November 23 - 3:06 pmI am getting 45 mpg in hot and humid conditions, expect better when the weather turns cool. I park in the garage to keep prying eyes away! Love it. I have 4 cars, and this is the one I drive the most now.

No better technology out there. - 2005 Toyota Prius
By DDG - November 19 - 10:53 amIve owned a 2005 for only a month. I am still amazed at the technology that Toyota has designed into this car. Its also fun to drive. My second car is a convertible sports car, and I must say that most often, its difficult deciding which one to take out.

Awesome Prius! - 2005 Toyota Prius
By ssmithri - November 16 - 3:00 amOwning and driving this car pleases all of the senses and sensibilities. At a base price around $21,000 (I spent $24k with options), the Prius is affordable. The roominess (comparable to a Camry inside) allows for space for children or cargo (or both). The stylish outside and detailed appointments inside(multi-function display, sleek lines, etc...) are easy on the eyes. The ears and and nose appreciate the silent operation in electric only mode (the engine automatically shuts off /on depending on power/speed needs) and the near zero emissions leaves no foul oily taste in the mouth. The handling is responsive and tight and leaves one with a feeling of having a midas touch.
