Hello,

I had an '04 Honda Civic Hybrid and was stopped at a stop light when I was rear ended by a Ford F-250. While the car was a disaster, I am fine and never had so much as a headache. Granted, this is not a Prius but this is my experience.

I have never had a big vehicle so I cannot tell you about the getting used to something smaller but gosh, I am not able to park something bigger than my Civic so it can only be easier.

Good luck with your new car, I am sure you will love it.

I'm fuzzy on this whole good - bad thing.



As I said, parking got a lot easier for me (as did a few other things, like getting out of narrow driveways) with even the slight change from the '95 Ford Explorer to the FEH.
