    There is another issue... The Prius has a Made in America rating of 1.5 %. This in itself puts it out of the question for me. There is no car wholly "Made in the U.S" but there are many that rate above 80%. Those are the only cars i will ever buy.

    To each their own I guess. I just can't stand driving a prius. And I've driven 3 different models. The one civic I drove blew the others out of the water in drivability, guts and performance. But that's just me. I don't hate people that drive a prius, I just am not a fan.

    problem with any type of game show winnings is like almost 50% tax. so winning that shit car cost him like 11 grand probably. now he has to sell it used cause its not on the lot so it lost 3-4k worth of value immediately, so if it's a 22k car he's out 15k, he might get 6-7k i suppose. i dont know how much a prius is either.

    You can turn a car you won as a prize into a complete asset...the link maps out options and also says most dealerships will buy it from you for a fair price and you can cover the taxes and buy another cheaper car...my favorite was...if you have one. Sell your old car and pay the taxes..
