Please. Prius is fucking pointless. If you give a flying fuck about miles-per-gallon get diesel or a super light subcompact. The new '08 Jetta TDI diesel is safer, better built, more luxurious, and gets almost 15MPG on average better then Prius. Not to mention it will be more reliable. Prius becomes useless and worthless the second the batteries die.
Dont know about other parts of the country, but around here, diesel runs $0.75 more than premium. Kinda defeats the purpose.
Most european diesel cars get 50+ mpg. It would be worth the extra few dollars per tank it if those cars were HERE IN THE US

Buy something at LEAST 10 years old, preferably something older than you yourself. And make sure it has no more than 6 cylinders. That way when you get something your actually mature enough to own and appreciate, you'll actually feel like you stepped up in the world.

Way to fail oh so hard.
How do I fail? I dont control the price of diesel. And its true. No one drives anything diesel around here (aside from large trucks) because its just way to expensive.

Oh dear Jesus... Diesel gets better MPG. I'm going to use an example that even you should be able to understand. Would you rather pay 3.19 per regular gallon and get 21 MPG or pay 4.01 and get 39 MPG? These are extremes of course but yeah...
actually not always true..
For the sake of the topic it makes the most sense.
What is a diesel car, easily available in the US, that gets SIGNIFICANTLY better than a similar standard fuel vehicle. Keep in mind, it has to get millage that justifies the extra $0.75/gallon.

VW Jetta and Beetle with the TDi engine. Still, I don't think the MPG is that great. EPA rates it in the 30's, owners see 40-50's on average

also another positive about diesel is, the colossal torque they give means they are incredibly fast and can take a good beating as well.
