The company Toyota comes from Japan. They actually don't make any vehicles in Japan anymore. I work for a Toyota subsidary company and I have met the last of the "Toyota" family. His name is Doctor Toyota. They make alot of small parts still over in japan that are shipped to their plants here in the US. Toyota does also make Lexus.. but don't waste your money... they are the same exact parts. NO joke. different logo... more luxury yes... everything underneath the hood is the exact same as their Toyota model. Toyota just bought Isuzu also, and we are looking towards buying Nissan and Honda. Toyota also manufactures the Scion series as well. So, they may be from Japan, but in the next 10-20 years i'd bet everything on Toyota being a full US auto maker... and being the very top of the sales charts. We're pretty close now.

They are basically a computer on wheels. In my experience with vehicles, the more high-tech they get and the more gadgetry they add, the more unreliable vehicles become. The best cars seem to have simple, old technology. If you buy a Prius new and only plan on keeping it 2 or 3 years, it should be a pretty good car. The hybrid system in these cars are insanely complicated with all kinds of added parts over standard gas powered cars and are rediculously expensive to repair if something does go wrong. One of my father's co-workers recently bought a new Honda Insight. With less than 10,000 miles on the odometer, he's having electrical problems. First generation Prius' had major electrical glitches with the hybrid system that made the car inoperable. Besides the major electrical glitches, I've read and heard that using the A/C reduces the fuel economy by up to 10mpg. That's WORSE than the drop in mileage by using the A/C in a typical gas powered car. In a gas powered car, you can expect a 2-3mpg drop in economy by using the A/C. The technology is just not proven yet and it's very costly technology, both for the companies selling these cars and for the people buying them. Gas powered cars are very fuel efficient nowadays without all the complex, expensive, unreliable gadgetry. I'd say get a similar sized 4-cyl. gas powered 4-door instead of a Prius. Save yourself the $5,000-$10,000 purchase premium and possible nightmares in the future. Life is difficult enough without added headaches. A new Corolla or Civic will return over 40mpg on the highway...without hybrid confusion.
