Our New Prius (3 cents)

1. It is very comfortable.

2. On a trip to NYC, it got slightly over 50 miles per gallon.

3. It takes regular gas.

4. There appears to be more hidden trunk space than there appears to be.

5. It is easy to drive, and has a good feel.

6. It has bluetooth telephone capability giving hands free speaking and call reception.

7. It has a back up camera which is sort of cool.

8. It is keyless, which is sort of cool.

But

8. The radio controls (most of them) and the heat/airconditioning controls (all of them) are electronic on a screen and you can't see them both at one time. You have to flip screen to screen. What happens if your screen goes out?

9. The bluetooth connection has to be turned on each time you drive (if you want the phone to work)

10. There is no sky light

11. The seat adjustments are manual.

12. There is a weird split to the back window.

On a scale of 1 to 10, I would give it a 9. At least.
