    Hello PC, long time lurker here finally posting my introduction...I bought my '08 Touring #2 in October last year, currently have over 6000miles on it, and I must say I'm really not missing the '06 Evolution MR that it replaced. I've turned into a grandpa driver trying to maximize my mpg average and loving every minute of it. Currently at 46.8 mpg, can't seem to break that 50 mpg yet.

    Hello NM:D
    I am a new New York Prius owner. I have to say - I love it :cool: Each time I see another Prius I get giddy - "Hey cousin!" comes to my lips! I feel as though I know the other driver! I, too, am watching the mileage - got up to 50 on the road to work (35 miles) with out any accessories running. Noticed that once the weather got cold, my mileage has dropped - 46 on hwy and 38 around town. Not complaining - just noticing.
    Enjoy your trip :usa2:pat

    LOL! I'm like that too when I see another prius, I always point it out to my wife. Of course, she hates it when I do that...

    Hey Prius729, great to finally hear from you after 6,000 miles. I am also glad that I decided to get a Prius. It took me almost two years to decide :p. Your mpg looks great. Enjoy the ride.

    Hello back from another NM owner! I'm in Albuquerque (Taylor Ranch), there are many of us here, only a few active on PriusChat. Your mpg will increase as both you and the car break in. After a year, I still look forward to driving my Prius somewhere!
