Welcome!

Just enjoy your car for a while. No need to focus on tricks and things like that until you get a little more use to the car. There a quite a few people that get great mileage just driving.

There are a few quicks things you can do right away to maximize your MPG -

1. Check tire pressures - most of us are running 42 front and 40 rear (check them when cold)
2. Check oil level - many of us have found that the oil was overfilled - if so, you can have the dealer take some out (check it when the car is warmed up)
3. Don't use the AUTO function of the climate control system - instead manually select A/C if needed and try to keep it as low as possible

But bottom-line, just have fun showing off your new car!

Mike

No, no, no Queued (or, as the case now seems to be, UnQueued)--no need for a new club--ALL chicks with a black Prius are, ipso facto, cool chicks. Welcome!
