2004 Toyota Prius Hatchback 4dr Hatchback (1.5L 4cyl CVT)
60,000 miles and going strong
 The car is a technological marvel in a very practical  package.  Bought new, it's been very reliable for 60,000 miles.  It's no sports car, but is faster than it seems because the CVT is so smooth that your speed builds without your noticing it.  Lifetime avg. 49.9 mpg driving smoothly, 53 mpg at steady 65, with or without the AC running.  Not quite so comfortable or quiet as our old Camry, but still very good.  Build quality is very impressive.  No problems to date.  Definitely the best car I've ever owned.  Love the hatchback layout.  There's lots of room, but the rear seat is too narrow for three across unless one is a child.
