I can't find pictures of a Prius and a V together to compare sizes[...]

That couple wanted a V, but they said it cost $10,000 more, and they could do a lot with that much.

They did acknowledge that roof storage would destroy their fuel economy, but felt that increased storage would be better.

I watched 5 videos of different people with Prius V campers and none of them had as much stuff as the guys living in normal Prii.

None of the Vs were very fulll and none had cargo carriers.
