    For the last 2,000 miles on Trip A mpg display is 60.3 mpg, this is 57 mpg true based on 3 - 3 .5 mpg difference in calculated vs computer generated. Gas is 87 octane with 10% ethanol. With pure 87 octane gas with no ethanol 60 mpg true mpg + would be the result.

    I am looking at purchasing the 2016 Prius as our 2010 is nearing 130,000 miles. So far our 2010 Prius gets the best mpg of any car I have owned even a 1994 Honda Civic VX, very rare, and a 2003 Jetta Wagon, TDI (diesel), 5 speed manual.

    You changed two variables: ECO off and more relaxed driving. Maybe leave ECO off for a while but try a bit harder? That's me, anyway.

    My first post in this thread. This is the best I've been able to do with my short work commute (RT about 6 miles with several stop lights). I try pulse-n-glide when possible, and the weather has been mostly dry lately, with temps in the 80s. AC off, windows down. Energy Savers A/S tires (stock 15" size) with 40-42 psi front, 38-40 psi rear.
