The Prius is so cool...

Since this is a church-going thread.... The real question is whether Jesus would take the G3 and leave the G5 for his wife.

 

Maybe black out the license plate on that sweet-looking gen 3.

I presume the gen 5 just doesn't have a plate yet? That's an American phenomena that just doesn't happen up here: when you pick up a new vehicle they typically have an insurance agent come over, with paperwork and plates.

 

Not all states require a front plate. But even here where it is required, enforcement seems to have collapsed (in part from post-George-Floyd law changes), and more drivers are choosing to not display it.

 

Gen 3 looks like an SUV next to Gen 5. I hope at least it is not a Prius c.

 

You have serious visual problems interpreting image perspective.

OP: Looks awesome covered in snow! Nice pic

 

Not completely explained by perspective; the gen 5 is lower, has severely raked windshield, “vestige” side glass, less cargo space. It shows.

 

I'd say it's more a sedan to wagon comparison.

 

I'll agree with sleek sports sedan to... *ahem* car comparison.

Those two vehicles would illustrate a Star Trek time travel plot very nicely.

 

I think the bigger question is, would Jesus be able to drive on water as easily as he walks on water?

 

Ah, the Gen 3 pictured was an SUV after all.

 

Toyota had it classified as a station wagon.
Less ground clearance than the gen5.

 

To me, it looks more like a minivan than anything else. That's probably what "v" means.

 

lol

 

I seem to recall the "v" did stand for something, maybe "versatile"?

Similarly, I think the "c" (in Prius c) stood for "city", as in a small runabout for urban use.

 

You are probably right, but I always considered "c" as compact (like in iPhone 5c) and "v" as van. To me, Prius v is large enough to be considered a minivan. It doesn't look like a Prius at all.
