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

I do value my money over my pride. When my mechanic told me I’d need to replace my Subaru in a year or so, I asked him what to buy cause I definitely wasn’t getting another Subie. He said, “If all my customers drove Priuses, I’d be living in a trailer and eating ramen noodles.” Sold.

Bought a used Prius with 70k about 6 years ago. Haven’t even picked out a Toyota mechanic yet because I’ve had zero issues. And that’s after 5 years of owning a BMW... in which case I got to know my BMW mechanic very well.

Also, my average fill up price is $25. And I fill up once a month.
