Prius owners love their cars.

That's the answer they gave Consumer Reports for the third straight year. Owners of the Toyota Prius are very satisfied with their little cars and 92 percent say they'd buy the fuel-efficient hybrid sedan again.

The heart-thumping Chevrolet Corvette ranked second in the satisfaction survey.

The survey results, as well as those of the magazine's annual auto-reliability study, are available in the new car and truck preview issue that is on newsstands now.

Consumer Reports ranked 45 vehicles as the most satisfying when 80 percent or more of the people surveyed said they'd definitely buy it again.

Seven of those the vehicles are made by Detroit automakers including the Ford Mustang, Pontiac Solstice, Dodge Charger, Buick Lucerne, Chevrolet Tahoe, GMC Yukon and the Corvette.

Consumer Reports compiled survey results from 950,000 subscribers who responded to questions about 1.3 million vehicles.
