2012 Toyota Prius at 50,000 miles
I bought my 2012 Toyota Prius, model 3 with under 3000 miles (essentially new) and now have about 50,000 miles on it. It's been a great car so far with basically no maintenance needed other than the routine oil changes and new tires. I've loved the gas mileage and with a little modification to my route to work have been able to average about 54 mpg since purchased. I think overall the gas mileage has ranged from about 42mpg to 60mpg per tank, depending on my driving, the weather, or if I'm taking my family of five on vacation. My biggest complaint about the car is the road noise and lack of noise insulation. While the car is a lot quieter than an old economy car (like a Geo Metro, Suzuki Swift, etc), it is louder and less comfortable than the 2007 Toyota Camry Hybrid that it replaced. I'm also not a fan of the "flying buttress" that spans from high on the dashboard to the center console between the front seats because it gets in the way and cuts down on comfort.
