    The Prius is very reliable, owners have reported minimal problems as with most Toyota's, if you have a Hybrid for only 3-4 years after buying it used for cheap you can normally avoid the expensive battery replacement, and get plenty of miles out of it.

    With a Prius you can also easily get the GPS, heated seats, more room for passengers and their bags, good city mpg. Look at most new york and city taxi fleets, they are being taken over by hybrids. It's difficult to find a taxi in new york that isn't a hybrid, Toyota Camry hybrid being the most common.

    I enjoy my Mirage for uber though the H&R's that will be replaced soon with Tein or oem will make the 10 hours behind the wheel more enjoyable. The Mirage and Prius are the only good choices for cars for uberX (aka regular car/4 passengers max).
    2014 ES F5MBD aka 5MT. I am a full time Uber driver, if you want to drive for uber DO not sign up without my referral code for a bonus .

    Thought this link might be of interest, it is about Uber, not in the states but probably something will be done here like this down the road.

    https://ca.news.yahoo.com/exclusive-...--finance.html

    hope this works, i don't really know how to attach links

    thanks, Don
