#4 of 5 I rented a Prius by mtrialsm May 21, 2008 (12:16 pm)
I drove to Fla on a TDY trip, loved the car. Got 48 MPG driving fast! I was very surprised at the comfort on I-10 and pickup for a small engine. I had no problem cruising at 80 and at one time hitting 90 passing an 18 wheeler!. I made 4 round trips from Ga. to Fla in two weeks. One thing you don't want to do, is run out of gas on the Interstate!!!! With no warning, I was going 75 and like it hit the brakes! Lucky for me I was only a 1/2 a mile from a gas station!!! I like the car but doubt the long term value compared to buying a Corollla or Civic! I'd sure rent one again though!!! MM
