    Well, I've been without my Prius for just over a week. (See my post in the main forum about my accident).

    I have a 35 mile commute each way to work every day, which makes the Prius ideal. During the past week I've been driving my fiance's 2002 Civic instead. And although the Civic (NOT Hybrid) gets good gas mileage compared to some of the other cars and SUVs out there, it's still no Prius!

    I got so used to only have to put $10-$15 worth of gas in every 5-6 days. Now I'm having to put $15-$20 in every 3-4 days.

    ::sigh:: I miss my Prius!
