My Car: 2005 Prius Package: B Nominated 0 Times in 0 Posts TOTM Awards: 0 Friends: 11 | Whohoo! I'm currently at 122kms at 4.2L/100km (56mpg) and the first pip just disappeared. This is the farthest I've gone with this kind of low (or high depending on units) mileage |

I filled up the other day after 201 miles=2.65 gal 75 MPG. I went up the rode for 2 miles and top off the tank again because I could'nt believe the tank was full. It took .24 cents to top it off. Is this possible?? |

We filled up - 4.4 gallons - simply because Castle Rock has the cheapest gas on Colorado's front range. The tank mileage maxed out at 73.6 mpg after 165 miles - the end of the 5000-foot descent from Cameron Pass - but that 73.6 mpg also included the 3500-foot ascent. The net descent from Saratoga to Castle Rock is only 576 feet. On that descent, we also managed to fill the consumption screen with 99.9 mpg bars: http://www.priusonline.com/viewtopic.php?t=4905 Not that interesting a picture, actually, but it was fun to do!

My Car: Package: Nominated 0 Times in 0 Posts TOTM Awards: 0 Friends: 0 | Re: I Beat the EPA--Post 'em here I purchased a 2005 Prius on Jan 5/05. Have travelled (note travelled has two L's in Canada) just over 3,000K and have averaged 4.3 kilometers per 100 K. Does the Prius have readouts in both miles and kilometers as the Canadian cars do? On consumption it only shows kilometers per 100k and have to manually convert to MPG which is on average 63/65 MPG. Thge Canadian gallon (imperial) is approx. 20% more than the US Gal |
