Replying to: m2mazda6 (Apr 06, 2008 5:12 am) BTW you can't beat the utility. There is no other vehicle on the road here with the combination of size, fuel economy and utility. It's also one of the most reliable autos in the US now according to CR.

Replying to: carbot (Apr 08, 2008 7:24 pm) It appears that there is going to be some major announcement next Jan at the Detroit Auto show. I'm guessing that the CEO of Toyota will introduce the new Prius for later in the year and give a solid timeline for the eventual addition of Li-ions and plugin capability. But as usual Toyota is zip-lipped about it. |

I'm still a 'newbe' here - but I'm tracking MPG and prices paid for gas.. I'm very pleased with the car as a whole. Gas here in San Jose, Premium is at $4.10/gal, Regular is about $3.85.. so I'm loving the 50mpg (about) number on Regular gas. sc |

Replying to: peakoil (Mar 23, 2008 11:52 am) I'm new atposting but just wanted to give som einteresting fact. I drove a friend's Prius for the first time and averaged 75.4 mpg. Normally, I drive a Ford ranger truck which is advertised at 21 mpg in the city and I drive in a manner that I coast to lights and accellerate very slowly and get 27 mpg... well, driving the Prius in that manner for 1.5 miles in city driving I got 75.4 mpg. I am truly impressed!!! Hope I didn't intrude to this post! L

You can't take a 10 mile drive, and go downhill, and coast, and make conclusions based on this! Don't think for 1 seconds you will average anything close to this. You will get about 50mpg like the rest of us. It will drop to 43-44 once in a while, and go a bit above 50 (51) once in a while. Drive it more, then let us know how it does. I hope none of the readers thinks this is a 'special' Prius - it's not.. the test drive was not very valid. Sure glad you were impressed. sc
