I need to upgrade my car and I'm looking at the Toyota Prius. It gets 45 MPG in the city so it will save me a lot of money. The dudes on my job told me that black people shouldn't buy these but honestly, I just want to save some cash. I wanted to see if anyone here owned one and if they liked it or not.

Had a 2005 Prius when I used to work as an independent contractor making deliveries. Was a smooth car not the most attractive thing but girls liked it. Its incredibly efficient but don't drive in heavy snow

That's going to be my first car. I'm all about living green.

Learn to ignore the ignorant. They are probably the same people living paycheck to paycheck struggling, because they can barely make the payments on that audi they just had to have

Sounds good. I'm looking at getting a 2009 or 2010. I'm in Texas so I won't have to deal with the snow.

That's what I was thinking. Seems like us blacks always try to keep each other down.

I've heard bad things about them reliability wise. And the savings on gas aren't worth the expensive price for the car, when compared to similar all gas vehicles. For example you can get a Honda Accord, which is larger, better looking, more reliable, and more enjoyable to drive. for $5000 less than a Prius. Are you really gonna save $5000 in gas over the next 4-6 years?

Whenever someone says "Black people shouldn't _______" I just be like :comeon:

And it normally makes me what do whatever it was even more...

I just assume when people say that it basically means, I haven't heard any rappers or athletes talking about them nor have I looked into it myself, therefore they must suck...
