Due to high gas prices and the need to reduce the cost of commuting 2 years ago, I traded my beloved Jeep Grand Cherokee for a smaller commuter vehicle. I was pleased, and amazed, to find out that a 9 ft. fly rod will fit, fully rigged, along with all the gear for 2 flyfishers into a Toyota Prius! With 50 miles per gallon and 60K miles on her, I'm still happy.

Since I haven't figured out how to haul 120 lb. of kayaks on the roof of the Prius, our best all round vehicle is a 2004 Dodge Ram 4x4 w/hemi & 4 doors. This baby is comfortable and it's also paid for! What more can you ask...
