My first Toyota is my current Toyota, an 04 Sienna. It's beautifully designed, and loaded (it's an XLE), and we love it, but I must say it hasn't been without its mechanical and electrical bugaboos. In just the last year (with 60K miles on the odometer) we've replaced the seat warmers, the left sliding door mechanism, and the front proximity sensors, and each repair would have cost as much as we spent on the extended warranty. My wife had been the one pushing for the warranty and despite Toyota's reputation and my expectations, it turned out to be a very good investment.
I'm sure you'll love your Prius though, even if it doesn't turn out to be perfect (which I hope it will). I haven't heard anybody who has one say a thing against them.
