    I like to fill up with two pip bars but for this tank I went down to one.
    Over 28 tanks I average 509 miles per tank.

    Latest tank results:
    688 miles using 9.985 gallons = 68.90 mpg calculated; 70.1 MFD.

    i was trying hard for 650 miles on the tank (as hard as i could without driving just to raise the mpg, in other words my normal commute), came up just barely short. the mpg is off a bit, i filled up at shell instead of the quiktrip i usually do, and the pump was acting differently after first click. so i stopped instead of adding a bit more like usual. the mfd read 60.8mpg.

    still my first tank over 60mpg mfd, and over 600 miles. i'm hoping i can stretch the next tank till july.

    Miles: 638, Gallons (US): 9.835, MPG: 64.87 (60.8 mfd), Average Temp: 75°F

    Total Miles: 13296
    Oil: Mobil 1 full synthetic, 3.25 quarts
    Tires: Goodyear Integrity @ 42/40

    Latest tank results:
    696 miles using 9.51 gallons = 73 mpg calculated; 64 MFD. I would have pumped probably another gallon in, but the pump started belching gas out of the fill tube, and down the side of the car at 9.5 gallons. Whats up with that? Filled at 1 tick/pip remaining, and anticipated needing around 10.5 gallons.

    Man, I need to move out west! I have to look at my actual stats, but I am getting around 470 or so on 9.5 gallons. My best tank was 54 mpg and change. Stupid NJ. :(

    Best tank so far 664.3 miles, 70.8 MPG on display filled June 6. Average MPG for last 3 tanks 65.4 MPG. Over 43848 the display has been 2 % higher than calculated MPG (actual miles/actual gallons ). In this case I filled right to the lip of the tank which I usually do not do for fear of spilling so calculated MPG was 61.4 due to underfill of previous tank, true MPG was probably about 69.4 MPG (adjusting display down by 2 %). Almost broke 70 sort of and first tank over 600 miles.

    2nd tank
    Best calculated tank 70.17 MPG(732.6 miles/10.441 gal) first tank over 700 miles! Tank probably underfilled by about .6 gallons (this is why I prefer to judge MPG by MFD), 66.6 MPG by MFD.

    So for June so far 68.59 MPG by MFD, 65.72 MPG calculated(1397 miles, 21.258 gal).

    Well, I seem to be improving my gas mileage the longer I drive my Prius:

    1st tank: 501 miles, 55.7 mpg
    2nd tank: 478 miles, 53.6 mpg
    3rd tank: 568 miles, 59.3 mpg
    4th tank: 501 miles, 56.5 mpg
    Current tank: 288 miles, 61.8 mpg

    The only problem is that I am becoming more obsessed with beating my mileage records. I'm spending more time in my rear view mirror than out of my windshield!
