  1. Comment - Software Bug Stalls Prius Hybrid Cars

    (Oct 16, 2005 - 10:45 AM)

    I've ridden in a Prius. They're nice and the technology is promising.

    But on the other hand, in March of 2003 we bought a Jetta diesel with stickshift for $16,500 and my wife's last three tankfuls of fuel have gone 51.8, 51.8 and 50.9 mpg.

    Why would I buy a smaller car, with less cargo space, with more (and more expensive) things to fail on it, for considerably more money, and be rewarded with the same highway mpg?
