    My car told me I have achieved 3 levels of achievement for driving: Eco Master, Eco Warrior, Eco Expert.

    Not sure what all that means but probably not a discount or cash returned.:)

    Hmm ... it looks like another marketing attempt from a fcar maker (Toyota) to try to make you play with the Dashboard App.... and stay subscribed to their online services. In my opinion it is just a toy. - brings almost no value.
    All those ECO scores are... app scores - nothing more. If one like to play TOYOTA's Pokemon like app.. go for it.
    I am not going to manage my driving habits to compete with other Dashboard users....
    have a Good One!
    cheers

    It means you've most likely angered every giant SUV driver around you. ;) Congrats!

    Sunday morning it is foggy as heck on I-75 but my radar dynamic cruise control was working perfectly and I was following someone doing ~75 mph when a big Caddy SUV zooms past. So my Prius Prime slipped behind and paced on dynamic cruise control, through the fog at ~85 mph. After about 5 min with no luck shakin' the 'tailgating' Prius, he slowed down.

    Yes, the BMW i3 taught me all sorts of bad driving habits but I take wicked delight using dynamic cruise control to be the high-speed Prius tailgater.

    When I drive slowly, I anger the driver behind me.
    When I drive quickly, I anger the wife next to me.
