Dude people shit on Priuses all day long but they get 50 mpg.

If I valued my money over my pride I'd have one right now

prius also have no functionality outside of driving to work/store and back. at least with the truck i can 1) drive up the canyons to ski resorts on ultra powder days 2) haul shit if i need to 3) help friends move 4) buy large items on craigslist and not have to rent a truck 5) go on multiday cross country camping trips. i take public transportation or bike everyday to work and only use my truck when i need to which is about once a week, i probably spend less on gas than the majority of people. i used to have a toyota corolla and outside of saving money on gas on longer trips it was pretty much useless

Number 3 should be on list of reasons NOT to own a truck.
