Well now that I have allot of feed back - here is what no one took into consideration... full calculations.

My current 2002 Jeep Grand Cherokee 17 MPG Average
At 30,000 miles a year my gas costs at $ 3.60 a gallon = $6,353

Now the 2008 Toyota Prius at 45 MPG or more
at 30,000 miles a year my gas cost at $ 3.60 a gallon = $2,400

That's a $ 4,000 savings per year !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
In 5 years the car practically pays for it self with a $0 repair/5 year 120,000 mile extended warranty for $ 1,000.

PRIUS all the way................looks - hey I hope they are looking at me not the car... Oh well, at least I will have enough money for McDonalds...
