Do you have any other requirements or wants? How good is good MPG? How much driving do you do and how much city vs highway? How many people and how much cargo do you need it to haul? Why the less than 2 years old requirement?

I got my Prius because I wanted a reliable car that got better MPG than any other car its size. I also like having a hatchback or wagon for the extra cargo space and flexibility, which was another plus for the Prius. I almost bought a new one in 2013 (a C, actually, because they're cheaper), but saw my '05 with 85k miles on the used side of the lot for less than half the price of the C and had to have it. Coming up on 130k miles and I've replaced the tires, oil changes, a couple lights, 12v battery, and the coolant pump for the inverter. And it's averaged close to 50MPG.
