So, I never tailgate a Prius or any car for that matter. I'm never in that much of a hurry. Plus, giving yourself a little distance stops rock chips to the front of your car.

They both have their own purpose, but the Z is definitely more expensive to run purely because of the tires. Average cars have tires that last 30K, you get 15K in the Z off the truck. There is also the transmission fluid and diff fluid change, but they are <$100
