I know you said you didn't want a used car and also want to pay less than $20,000 so a new Prius probably doesn't fit your requirement BUT we have a 2007 Prius that has been fabulous. I can't recommend it highly enough. We truly average 50-54 mpg depending on whether we are in Florida or in the mountains of NC - better mileage in NC. We have driven it on long trips and find it very comfortable both to drive and to ride in. Love it!!!!!
