I'm planning on buying a new car with the help of my parents with a budget of about 20,000. I need help choosing between a Dodge Caliber, Toyota Prius, and Volkswagen Rabbit. The Caliber is my dad's pick, the Prius because its the cheapest hybrid, and the Rabbit because its a small car with a lot of power. I don't mind buying Certified Pre Owned, especially with the Prius. So please help me choose!!! Let me know your opinion or some pros and cons!!

okay, i don't like any of them, but i will pro/con them for you.

Dodge: PRO ~ the price is unbeatable, with chysler going under u can find a decently good equiped caliber in ur price range. CON ~ chrysler has a history of bad design and poor reliability, the caliber isn't a very exciting car and is pretty unrefined.

Toyota: PRO ~ toyota has a great track record for quality and reliability and the prius has great gas mileage. CON ~ the car takes fuel economy over performance so it is as much fun to drive as a rock. not to mention it looks kinda weird.

Volkswagon: PRO ~ The most fun vehicle in this group and with german engineering, fun is put back into the equation. It also looks pretty good. CON ~ volkswagon (and really, almost all german makes) has a pretty bad reliability record.

I would suggest something like a toyota yaris or honda fit.
