Love this car!

Love my 2008 Prius. Reliable, dependable. Have 129,000 mi and just switched out the battery for first time. Get regular maintenance done, but otherwise no problems. Gas mileage 37-45 mpg. Comfortable ride.

My wonderful 2008 Prius

We just had our 100K service and found very little wrong. It has been the best car I have ever owned. It is comfortable, has lots of room inside, handles well, gets great mileage, and has given us nearly no problems. I have maintained it well which might have helped, but I expect it will be in my garage for years to come. Good job, Toyota!

2008 Prius

I have a 2008 Prius that I bought new. I now have a little over 83,000 miles on it. We've run it up and down the Pacific Coast a number of times as well as all over the Sacramento region. It is very comfortable to ride in. I bought my tires at Maita. I enjoy the fact that they take care of them at no extra charge. I haven't very many complaints. I worry about the cost to replace the hybrid battery. It gets comparatively good gas mileage but not what I thought I would get. Originally I understood I would get 45 mpg in town and 48 mpg freeway driving. It goes up a mile to a mile and a half on a trip but than goes back down to 39.9 or in that general vicinity, in town driving. Besides a headlight going out which was very expensive to replace. I replaced both headlights to avoid labor costs at over $400. Ouch! Other than the repairs being expensive. I have enjoyed driving this vehicle.

2008 Prius - Great overall, if pricey

My 2008 model Prius is fairly comfortable, although I have to keep a cushion behind my back or I get lower back pain (this is the only car I've had that happen in.) Toyota always has great quality, and the Prius doesn't disappoint. It's built to conserve gas, not to be 'fun to drive,' but it's not difficult to drive - it accelerates and turns as well as it needs to. I didn't get it fully loaded, I do like the backup cam but it doesn't have the lines that show trajectory like in newer models. Doesn't score high on value for money because no new car is good value for money, and the Prius is expensive. But I like the design - you can fit a surprising amount of cargo in the back. I even put the seats down and loaded a large dresser from Ikea into it (don't remember exact dimensions, but one end of the long boards was against the back hatch and the other end in the front seat.)

Over 90,000 miles and going strong

I have owned my 2008 Prius since it was new in Dec. 2007, and have never had a problem with it. I average between 45-48 miles per hour on the road and around 35-40 with just in town driving. We have driven it from Iowa to Georgia and Florida multiple times and it cruises very easily at 70 miles per hour.

I enjoy my Prius!

Have been driving my '08 Prius with very few problems. There are a few things I would change, to make life easier, if I could.

Love my red 2008 Toyota Prius

Got my 2008 Prius in 2010, when my 1987 Toyota Camry with 340,000 miles was sideswiped & totaled- by the way the engine was still running just fine! I love it!
