    I was hoping the next generation Prius would have come out by this time. It looks like I will have to wait another year. So I'm still stuck with my '04 Prius which I got around this time 11 years ago. The car has recently done over 360,000 miles. One interesting note on Toyota cars, the digital odometer stops at 299,999 and wont go further after that. This is a programing issue. I wish Toyota could have made it stop at 500k miles. My field work job requires me to submit a daily mileage report and I rely on the odometer reading for this. I've been using the Trip A odometer ever since then/ It cycles back to zero after 9,999 miles. My Prius may be on its way to the 400k miles mark before I finally get that replacement.

    A car owner after my own heart! Take care of your ride and it can take car of you for a looooong time. We've averaged about 225,000 miles per car since 1979

    Lots of good incentives on Prii right now (cheap gas is killing sales) and I'm still interested. Like @little_pogi, I'm more interested in the next generation though. Be nice if Toyota would do away with their mandatory arbitration clause though. That could be a deal killer.

    I have a 2012 Prius V which I bought used from a dealer a year ago. They spent 6 mos. fixing problems. When I finally got it I was getting 34 mpg. The last fillup showed 21 mpg. Any ideas?

    I have a 2015 Prius V, it's a good family car but nothing more than that.
