I just recently replaced my daily commuter


I had been driving an F150 into the ground as my daily commuter. Tough on the vehicle, expensive to feed (getting ~15mpg).

I didn't get rid of the truck, but I didn't want to keep spending that much on commuting (plus I needed a vehicle that I could get into parking garages with ease, etc.). So, with operating cost and size as my primary factors... I bought a Prius. Great fuel economy, and easy to fit where I need to take it for work. Still have the truck for fun and games, and weather, and hauling, etc.... but my operating costs are now tiny.
