@JacesOwnWorld Жыл бұрын
@@ragweedmakesmesneeze Prius hate is actually real, needed, and downright warranted. The hate didn’t originate because of the car. It originated because of its general spec of drivers. Their self entitlement, their lack of courtesy, their oblivion mindset while driving, their pompous attitudes…this all has originated from the drivers themselves in general. Not all Prius owners are like this, but the majority are. If you buy a Prius, you have to be prepared that those who bought Prius’s before you, have paved the way for you to be hated on the road. I drive for DoorDash, UberEats, Instacart, and Walmart Spark. I would say 1 out of 20 Prius drivers actually drive quickly, keep up with traffic, and are aware of their driving environment. The rest of the 19 out of 20 are completely opposite, and are causators of traffic. “Don’t plan on getting anywhere if you’re stuck behind a Prius.” “Better be fully aware of that Prius driver by you if you don’t want to get hit.” These are things that immediately go through my head when I see a Prius. Like I said, it’s not about the car, because you are right, it’s probably the most important car that’s ever come out in the last 25 years. But it’s drivers have completely ruined it…

I have a 2012 Pruis, it still rides like it's almost brand new. I still have the original auxiliary car battery up in the engine ( most last about 6-7 years before you have to replace them ), still rides well on its original suspension ( 141,000 miles on it ). Most people that I know who ask to drive it say it's quicker than they thought. The only thing I've had to replace was the windshield washer motor for the fluid sprayer( two years ago), the cost was about $140 for taking it out and putting in the new part, and I used the heck out of the factory CD player ( rarely used the radio). The CD player lasted 9 years and failed to eject or play CDs, it had several thousand hours of use. I put in an aftermarket Cd player. If you review high-end and $ 40,000-plus cars every week its never going to be your favorite car to drive. It is similar to a great friend it rarely if ever lets you down. I don't drive slow like most Prius drivers, I've had the car up to very high speeds as I was failing to keep up with a brand new 2015 Corvette Stingray. They say it's governed at 114 but I looked at the speedo while chasing the corvette and I was going well over that ( they probably forgot to put the governor on my car), without a lot of vibration and it still felt like it could go 10-15 mph faster. The corvette driver waved at me and couldn't believe the Pruis had those speeds in her. It climbs mountain passes here in Colorado very well. The car's light has good headroom, I'm 6'1".The way I drive, the car gets about 45 Mpg in the summer and 39 in the cold winter months. The first two years I drove it, I liked to see how much gas I could save most of the time, at that time I would get 53 miles per gallon. I had a beautiful 2001 Toyota Tacoma V6 SR5 Pearl Jade TRD truck ( loved that truck) and I still feel like the Prius is my favorite vehicle I have ever owned. When I want to have a faster car for a day or two I rent Audi, and if I want a more refined car I rent a Lexus or a sports car. Lastly, I have had my Pruis here in my home state of Colorado in some pretty bad snow storms and it climbed four passes in storm ( One day) and it was rare to have any wheel slip ( the tires were close to the end of their life too). I still have the car and don't plan on buying anything new any time soon ( saved thousands on gas). It has a lot of storage space, especially the hatchback that I have. Best day to everyone.

I'm averaging 59-63 mpg in my Corolla hybrid (56mpg with more aggressive or longer highway driving) so I don't see a compelling reason to switch back to the Prius unless I were to the Prime. I would love the AWD option though, specially if I were in a more snowy climate.

It’s a big step forward, but compromised by the lack of space in the rear seats (due to the sloping roofline) and the odd steering/instrumentation setup, which I think would be a deal breaker for me.

Enchanting review as always. As I eek towards the twilight of my life things like the Prius become more appealing. I'm still at a loss as to why car audio systems sound like crap. The cheap Hi-Fi market has exploded over the last 10 years but affordable cars are 20yrs behind.
@romannasuti25 Жыл бұрын
My intuition on that is that these companies have upmarket products they don’t want to cannibalize. If you want a truly great factory sound system from Toyota, you need to pony up for a Lexus with some Mark Levinson.

Around the 9:00 mark. Small tank? 51 mpg translate to 21.7 km/liter. And with a 40 liter tank you can run it for 870km around 540miles. That is not bad.

I'll let car guys in on a secret: They've always been good, well-packaged, mega-efficient, easy to use and ultra-reliable cars going all the way back to the first gen in the 90s. While they never deserved the love of enthusiasts, I'm not sure they ever really deserved the hate either. They're a much smarter, lighter option for most regular drivers than crossovers we all are tired of. Starting with the Prime several years ago, and now with this model, they look properly good. And it's no longer cool to be proud of your gas guzzler so may as well sip fuel along the way.
