    Wanted to say I am Ann. I having been driving an 04 Expedition since it was new. I have hated driving it because of the mpg. I feel safe in it but too much truck for me. I am older and drive alone most of the time.
    I got a quote on a loaded IV for 30,500. Plan to pick it up in a few days. I drove on last weekend and loved it. The dealer would not budge off the price.

    Thanks
    Ann

    You'll love the Prius mpg's :)

    Is the Prius safe? I'd say it was pretty good for its size. It's gained 5 stars (out of 5) on the Euro Ncap stricter crash test. Think it got similar results on the US equivalent.
