I was curious, so when I bought the Prius I started tracking all expenses, beginning with the cost of purchase, sales tax, fees, loan interest, and now including maintenance, consumables, fuel, insurance--every cost associated with owning a car. At just under 47,000 miles, it's sitting at $29,000 and change, or $0.63/mile (for a car with a purchase price of $20,735).
