I'm hoping to get at a few more years out of my 121,000-mile Altima, but nonetheless your car review are some good food for thought.

Another consideration for Prius is the battery. My understanding is that in our area the hot summers will shorten the life of the battery a bit and they are NOT inexpensive to replace (even rebuilt ones that I hear are not a good choice).
