    I figured I'd ask here since someone on maxima.org asked long ago "How many of your deliver pizza w/your Max?" :D

    I have never driven pizza in my life. I'm not saying I wouldn't, but it is not a job I have ever had. Anyway, I'm not sure if I would drive pizza in a brand new car. However there is a take-out/delievery pizza joint just a stones throw up the street from my house. They seem to have a lot of different drivers. One of them has a brand new non-hybird loaded Civic Ex that is really nice looking. Then there is another guy who uses a 1/4 ton Chevy Silvarado to drive pizza. He can't be doign too well with that. Makes you wonder why he hasn't found a job which requires him to drive for a living?

    Over 6yrs late, But I do!! As a second job that is.. As far as I know, I am the 2nd person to have a Gen 1 in a 15mile radius of my town. I have so many people ask me, Where did you get your new prius? I didn't know they were making that model Its really cute!!! When I tell them it is a 2002, They go "Ohhhh" and then ignore me. lol

    Can't wait to compare the prius mileage to my old 95 Grand Prix GTP super charged... So far after 200ish miles, the prius is beating ol Betsy (grand prix) by 26mpg... Still trying to get up to a 45mpg avg. But with the short trips delivering, its killing my mileage plus the 20 degree weather isn't helping any... lol

    An ECT spoofer should help the short trip fuel economy.

    Unfortunately it has never been tested on a Gen2 and he doesn't have any more units.
