Purchased car last weekend - $27,500 OTD. Last minute decision decided to buy 72 mo/100K extended warranty that included routine maintenance for 48 mo/45K for $1200. Really enjoying the can so far - it's my wife's first "new car" - she;s always gotten my hand me downs. She drives 100 miles RT to work and she's loving it. I'll update as we own it a bit longer. Update - 9/13/16: still really like the car. However, gas prices are 30% less than they were when we purchased the car. So the economics of the car probably don't pencil anymore. But the car is still solid and my wife is happy with her small gas bills. Capital purchase probably is off the mark. Update - 9/13/17: still liking car. only routine maintenance so far. Mileage is typically 44-48 mpg - strong but not outstanding with today's technology. Still think it was a smart buy - even at today's gas prices. Update 3/13/18: still glad we bought it but gas mileage now runs around low 40’s. By today’s standards there are non-hybrid vehicles that are far less expensive available. But it is a very solid vehicle that performs admirablynwith virtual no maintenance other than the routine.

I purchased the prius persona in july and love this car, I previously had a Honda accord. I recommend the black cherry color, as this is a limited edition color, so there aren't a lot of them out there. this car is loaded with features, and at only 26000 with o percent financing, this was just right for me. I am getting 56 mpg going to work everyday, 24 miles, 17 of them on the highway. I am currently getting about 52 on the highway and about 56 or 57 in the city, I live in Chicago, so the city driving is stop and go, which gets you better mileage, and I have learned how to drive to get maximum fuel economy without being "that guy driving like a grandma". would recommend

Actually bought this car for three reasons: great gas mileage, the wife liked the color and the price. Not that impressed with the whole hybrid business but it seems we need to move in that direction and Toyota is a great product/brand. Driven daily for work about 60 miles a day. 45 mpg at highway speeds.

Extremely ecologically friendly, great fuel economy (easily 50-60 mpg for mine so far!). It takes a little bit to get used to driving it but once you do, it's like a dream to drive and finding that "sweet spot" where you top out the fuel economy at 100mpg is so rewarding. Lot of room in the back for cargo. I love all the nice extras the Persona has with it. Sporty looking, fun to drive, best car ever!

Nothing ever goes wrong with the Prius! This is my second one and going on my tenth year owning a Prius! It goes through the snow great as I put Bridgestone Snow Tires on it in the winter. It's like having all wheel drive I guess because of the weight distribution of the batteries being in the back part of the car. It seems to be getting better gas mileage as it gets older to. I have only used Shell gasoline in car and I usually get in the 50's and 60's but of late this year I am seeing in the low 70's!
