OK...aside from the dirty looks of some...and having to answer alot of questions and constantly defending myself for buying the car....I love it. OK..I actually adore defending myself when it comes to the car...its fun to make people look stupid. The seats arn't a problem, I think they're rather comfy. My husband is a rather big boy and he's impressed with the roominess/comfort. We don't have snow here...I couldn't imagine that in a Prius..just dealing with the regular rush of giant crapsacks trying to run me over daily, in rush hour, on thier way to traffic court hopefully. I traded in my giant truck for this car and I couldn't be happier. No more circling around parking lots to look for 2 spaces in order to pull into one. No more 200 bucks a month in gas. Theres a real nice lady that tells me how to get home if I'm lost. The stereo sounds good too. Oh theres alot of good s**t but you guys know already. Having a Prius is like having a kid...you'll lose some friends, but you'll gain some new ones. doo doo doooo la la laa...*whistles a happy tune*......

I'm another one who loves my Prius. Husband does too. And we think the seats are just fine. Don't seem the least bit incomfortable. The only thing we disagree on is how to andjust the side rearview mirrors. I use the click n clack method, which I've seen discussed here. Gets rid of that blind spot. He gets in, looks in the mirror and says, "I can't see a thing." And he re-adjusts them. I hope I never have to say, "I told you so."

I'm leaving mine that way for now. Oh. And of course I love my Prius. After getting it even my wife does. Although she doesn't appreciate the technology the way I do. Dave M.
I used to love it too... but then the MFD stopped working, the ABS system stopped working, the car mysteriously lost all its coolant, it shut off unexpectedly twice, and the left and right front axles had to be replaced. Love is gradually turning sour.
