    50mpg is that lifetime average? very impressive. (y)
    I don't have a lifetime average(reset my fuel economy/trip odometers several times) but in the past 7000 miles my average has been 42mpg. I am 1 month past my 1 year anniversary and currently at around 32000 miles.

    Thank you. This is most amazing car I had till now attributed to the space and comfort.

    I dont set any particular mode but I do hypermiling. Taking advantage of descends for ascends and applying brakes early.

    I'm a potential buyer of a prius. I drive from San Jose to San Diego and back several times a year. What is it like driving up and down hills such as 1600 elevation or 3000 elevation? In my jeep it takes about 8 hours to get to my destination at about 75-80 mph. What will my drive be like in a prius plug in??
