That's the sense I get from everyone who owns one, except I haven't heard
anything about the winter challenges, which can be about 5 months of the
year up here in Rochester NY. I had a customer just this week that let me
check theirs out, but they just got it and haven't driven through winter
yet. Other than that, I think I'd be very happy owning one.

The Prius will go down is history as one of the greatest innovations in the
history of the automobile. It is the best car I've ever owned, and has
enough room for several piano actions with room to spare. Not a mm of wasted
space.  After driving a prius, a non-hybrid all gas vehicle feels simply
archaic.

Anybody have experience with the Prius in northern winter conditions,
specifically traction in the snow and ground clearance?

The Prius is a mid-sized car. Lots of leg room in the back. Three people can
sit in the back. I have hauled both grand and upright actions in the rear
with the rear seats folded down - lots of room to spare. We've had it for
2-1/2 years now and love it. I have kept track of all fuel purchases and we
have averaged 53 mpg over the course of ownership.

Hi Everyone,
How roomy is the Prius?  Is it a good kid hauler like a minivan although not
quite as big,but how does it do with hauling families and can one fit a
piano action in it both grand or vertical?  Our Taurus is eating gas like
crazy and I cannot figure out why.  We had the fuel injectors cleaned not
too long ago.  Have a great rest of the night!
