So, it's time to end the love affair with my cts.
Looking to buy either a 2010+ Toyota Prius, a Chevy Volt, or a Chevy Cruze Eco. After looking at the expenses I will break even if I finance $6500 and get something else to drive assuming I can get 48 mpg average, currently getting around 26. Then the sale price of the CTS will pay half of the new car.
Commute:
120 miles round trip 5 days a week, literally 99% highway with two stop lights and a PSL of 55 to 65. Sometimes considerable traffic and short trips to the store from home. No elevation change to consider.
I am leaning toward the prius since that is likely to save me the most. But I am also seriously considering the Cruze eco because I may enjoy the manual 6 speed more. No option to charge at work for the Volt.
Any opinions?
