I spent the weekend in a 2010 Honda Pilot, leaving the Prius at home for my trip to Tuscaloosa, Alabama. We averaged a pretty painful 20.5 MPG overall (about 10% below the EPA highway numbers), but the added space was nice.

The Monday Morning Prius Diary seems to be getting A LOT more response over on our Facebook page, so feel free to become a "fan" of PriusChat and post your own comment about your weekend.

It's time again for the Monday Morning Prius Diary! That's not my photo above (thanks, Flickr), but I spent the weekend as a groomsman in a very good friend's wedding. The weekend was a blast, but it left me no time to show my lovely 2010 any attention. We did take it on the trip, traveling from Charlotte to Greenville, SC and averaging about 53 MPG.

I put over 600 miles on my Prius this weekend going to Columbia for a football game on Friday and then back on Sunday for a family member's birthday.  Unfortunately, other than driving, my Prius got no attention in the washing/waxing or modification department.

Did yours?  Any exciting tales from your weekend?

Feel free to post them in the comment thread or head on over to our Facebook page and leave a quick comment.

So, the only tale I have from this weekend is another football trip, and those must be getting pretty boring for you guys (although a 56 MPG round trip excited me).

What did you do with your Prius this weekend?

This weekend my wife and I loaded up the dog and tailgating supplies to head to Athens, Georgia and the University of Georgia for the South Carolina/Georgia football game.  We started out basically where we left off last weekend - 100 miles and 60 MPG into a tank.  Our first stop was in Greenville, SC Friday night to drop off the dog at his grandparents house.  Trip from Charlotte to Greenville: ~120 miles, 56 MPG.  4 MPG drop isn't bad for all interstate driving.  The next morning my Dad and I gave my 2010 Prius a much-needed wash.  It had been before our move

Welcome to a new feature on PriusChat - the Monday Morning Prius Diary.  Each Monday morning I'll start out the day by telling you a little bit about where I went in my Prius over the weekend and how my car played a role in my trip.  Our first Monday Morning Diary is actually going to be a Tuesday Morning Diary due to the Labor Day holiday weekend, but you get the idea.  Please post a comment in the discussion thread sharing your Monday Morning Prius Diary with the PriusChat community.  Here we go...
