This is what I get, WTF is it with random requirements for uber?

So I guess whether a 2006 is OK, depends totally on where he lives.

•Atlanta – 2005 or newer
•Boston – 2001 or newer
•Chicago – 2001 or newer
•DC: 2005 or newer
•Denver – 2001 or newer
•Dallas – 2003 or newer
•Milwaukee – 2001 or newer
•Nashville – 2001 or newer
•New York City: 2010 or Newer
•Philadelphia – 2000 or newer (could be 2001 or newer but not updated yet on Uber)
•Pittsburgh – 2006 or newer (hybrids 2004 or newer)
•LA/OC/SD and SF – 2001 or newer

Also I have never owned a Prius, like you when I was actually in the market I thought them way overpriced, now that they aren't, I own a volt so don't need one.

I do have friends that own a Prii and have test drove a prius various times (usually in the winter) I could usually manage 50mpg for the short test drive but I would expect 40mpg plus in non-optimal conditions as a taxi and probably 50+ in optimal, obviously depending heavily on how you drive the thing.

Good Luck
