This reminds me of the Audi fiasco in the 90's...I think a lot of it has to do with the media blowing it all out of proporation. Don't get me wrong, I'm not a Toyota fan myself, but I think they are getting shafted. IMHO.
And I still don't like the Prius...damn thing is right up there with the "Smart Car"...rolling tin can on wheels...good luck surviving even a 5mph crash in that piece 'o shit...I'll take my 6,000lb+ Silvy over those rolling pieces of duct work any day! //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif
