I have to be honest here: this is the only Toyota I've ever wanted to own. Call it lame. Call it crazy. But I've always hoped that Toyota would create something like this. I can't afford a regular Prius. The Prius c is within my range of affordability and I want something that's good on gas. Now only to figure out how long it'll take to scrape up that much change.

Anybody know if insurance is higher on hy-brids like this?
It sounds like a great little car. If it turns out to be as reliable as the Prius, then Toyota deserves some praise for this.
