If I had to I would.

I had it as a loaner (lol) when my SRT was in for service a year ago. I hit 95 mph in it and I thought I was going to die. But getting 40 mpg at 95 mph is awesome though. LOL

each to his own tho..

Aint that bad yall, maybe cause im in SoCal tho its kinda

to push one

Car is solid tho, low maintenance cost and practical. Have got alot of flipped birds tho

i laugh at people who struggle with their gas bill or people who pay upwards of $50/week on gas. gas is over $4.50 a gallon here and i pay about $40 every 2 weeks. 

best car i've ever owned - my car before this one was a brand new 4runner limited. 

STUNTMAN MIKE.... but whips a Prius... something not adding up..

Yes, I'm a male.

[jfmartimcdandruff]

[eight2one]

i hate Prius', their owners, and everytime I have to get in one

Wouldn't mind driving and owning one.

My next car will be a prius C.  I have a long commute to work and right now i drive a corolla and get about 38 mpg.  Being able to jump up to 50 will save me a good amount of money.  I spend about $280-$350 a month in gas now (obv based on gas prices which have sucked recently).  Hoping to cut that down

Great post on page 1 of this thread by the guy that owns 2 prius' really appreciate the insight.

Same. I drive an EVO and with the mods, it's getting unbearable to daily drive.

Yes! I love the Prius C. I've seen about 4 on the road and love the concept of a lightweight, Yaris-size car with Prius quality.

The F-Sport is the same performance as the regular CT, I have no idea why you would want to get the F-Sport, you are making your car look fast when clearly it is not.  If you live in a city, hybrid is king.  Get the CT if you don't like the look of the Prius, its 10mpg less, but you get better styling/quality inside and out.  Seriously who cares about 0-60 in a hybrid.  If you care about performance and saving gas, get the new Camry hybrid (which is another solid choice).

lol.  
the highways aren't the issue.  it's when I'm on local roads... I just KNOW they're going extra slow to try and keep their gas usage down. 

 

[presequel]

what about the lexus ct 200h?

40mpg, costs about 30k. only 143 hp but it looks better than a prius imo.
