Has anyone had any experience in trying to rent a Prius in New York or Jersey City?

I'm planning a trip to New York, and I would like to hire a Prius (of course!) and take a nice long trip to Toronto and back. I've had a look at the usual car rental sites and they're not very helpful.

I'm coming up blank Googling, so if anyone has any information or advice, I'd be very grateful.
