Not true!

If YOU drove a Prius the way you drive your Yaris, you would get much more then the Yaris. It is not fair to compare what you get from your Yaris againsts EPA numbers for the Prius.

Very true. It an apple and orange argument. I considered the Prius, but there was like a 10K difference in price and for 10K...I could drive my Yaris for three years and still be ahead in price.
