    Just a variation to enable more voting for more reasons than in revhigh's poll - no pun intended

    The Prius had EVERYTHING I was looking for in a vehicle at $26k.
    All other vehicles with my requirements were over $37k, and had lousy FE.

    x2...except, my price point was higher at around $35k. None of the other competitors could match what the Prius offered. It satisfied all of my requirements for a daily driver.

    we bought our 2011 prius because of the resale value, we were going to wait for the plugin, but figured we had nothing to lose by buying this car , and were signed up for the prius plug in when in comes to market were buying that car and selling 2011, and most of all use less gas
