    Conservation is great. I have practiced it all of my life. However if the Prius is operated under certain conditions, Toyota still recommends the 5K OCI.

    We should also say that our cars run electric mode approximately 30% so lighter duty than most other auto's. H

    Agreed, however if one practices gliding rather than EV propulsion, the benefit thereof is greater is energy conservation overall.
