Shoot it honestly wouldn't be bad. The 80s/90s/early 00s Toyotas sacrifice a couple mpgs for basically lasting forever (on most models, some models in particular are still no buys for me). My Sequoia and LS400 I drive now are known to be some of the longest lasting vehicles ever created which makes up for the mpg in my mind.
I think they went too hard core on the mpg and emissions on the new models. The trade in fuel economy seems to be pretty devastating on the longevity of them now.
Outside of rubber parts and rust the old ones will just run. So you will need to lube and clean door locks, keep chassis rust at bay, and will probably need to do a lot of oil seals and hoses as they reach 20 years of age which seems to be the limit for rubber seals and hoses. I would rather deal with a couple oil leaks than cleaning the egr cooler on the prius all the time so the car doesn't blow up.
