Sig, don't put all your bolts into that Consumer Reports bucket...it can show signs of rust in the bottom. Use many sources (JD Power, etc.) before you quote.

Consumers is good, but not god and not always right.

So you find a single source ( JD Power) that says there is a rust issue, and feel that is somehow the word of God??   Interesting that JD Power gave the Prius the highest ratings possible in all the other major categories, yet you somehow forgot to mention that.  Hmmm,  you seem rather biased, to say the very least.

If there was a significant rust issue, I think we would be seeing a lot more about this on various websites.   I spent quite a bit of time looking on Google for further documentation of any rust problem, and could find none.

While we get a lot of rain here in Western Oregon, it very rarely ever snows here.   So we don't have any sort of issues like there are in other states, with road salt usage.

LOL, I think you're getting a little overzealous in your defense there.

"Consumer Reports bucket" ... "can show signs of rust in the bottom"
That'd be a figure of speech... ie: Consumer Reports isn't the end all be all of consumer satisfaction ratings.  NOT "Prius' have a rust problem"

There was a manager that everyone hated..  I mean a real ahole.. liar and backstabber and phony...

He bought a prenus and made his appearance everywhere he could with it.

One of my brothers is gay and sent me some decals that are = signs.. they mean some kind of transexual and transgender/gay rights thing but it is pretty obscure.

The manager in question really doesn't like cars and has probly never even washed one or could tell if the tires were low or how to open the hood.

We put the = sign on his back bumper next to all the other prenus decals about how they get to go over bridges free etc....

He told us that all of sudden more and more people were waking up to the environment as he was getting a lot more attention on the freeway coming to work lately.. people would wave and blow him kisses and such..
