Dave from Colorado here; just recently traded in my old Corolla for a Prius V Wagon (2012) and liking it so far!
Hey, welcome to PriusChat! I was in a similar position 2 years ago, when my old Corolla DX Wagon (292,000 miles on the odometer) which I'd bought new in 1993, failed the state inspection (corrosion) and so I traded it in for a 2009 Gen II Prius (88,000 miles - only just run in, for a Toyota) - I love my Prius, great car and v. inexpensive to run! Smart choice to stay with Toyota! Congratulations!
