Wolfman - what kind of MPG are you getting in the Prius on these long trips? I dont think I will take a long road trip in mine until the summer. Are you seeing 55 MPG?

I have a classic. It's first trip was bucking against 30 mph head winds. My mileage was in the mid to upper 30's on that trip. The way home was still against head winds, just not as severe. It got in the mid 40's on that one.

I raised the tire pressure last night to the 42/40 spec for this one. I'll have a trip report when I get back in 8 days.

Gotta get ready to go. Cya when I get back.

I've been thinking of taking a few days and driving down to California (from Vancouver) over the summer. The '04 is the first car I've owned that I would feel comfortable doing a longish trip with.

Find some nice weather and go cruising

Dave
