Honda Fit vs. Toyota Prius


Toyota Prius


Honda Fit

It's about $15k and mileage is 28/34 mpg

The Prius is also good, at around $22k,48/45 mpg

I'm going to be driving around 40mi/day

40mi/day*1/30mpg = 1.33gal * 4 = $5.33/day
40mi/day*1/46mpg = .87gal * 4 = $3.75/day

$1945.45/year for gas
$1368.75/year for gas

These are conservative estimates for how much I'll be spending on gas since I'll actually get driving more than 40mi/day. So I will probably try to get a Prius if I can, but Honda Fit would be good, too.
