Separate names with a comma.
Speculation (e.g., xcel at CleanMPG) is that the 09 Prius may raise Glide from 42 to 62 mph limit, which would be very significant, but otherwise...
I LOVE your article. One question. I understand DWL as steady throttle, not constant RPM. I believe RPMs will fluctuate as you lose speed up the...
I've seen a lot of new owners who found the first tank way lower than all others. The cynic in me surmises that the dealerships are adept at...

perhaps, but not by as much as the coolant would have cooled the ICE if there were no thermos. The engine has coolant in it at startup that is...
Re: Why Don't I Get The EPA Mileage? 15% less FE (48.5 v 42.3) on the long trip? hmmm... and similar lifetime difference. All more or less the...
any chance you inadvertantly went up (R) with the shifter? It's easy to do. D is down which seems backwards to some. System would tend to...

I use excel. Keep a print of current tanks in car with a grid to record new tanks and other notes on maintenance. I set up the scheduled...
Yes. The 01-03 Classic is a sedan. 04-08 look very much alike.
Tire pressure 42/40. Do you have a ScanGuage II? It would be very interesting to compare your stats at different cruising speeds in similar...

Glad to see your post. Just got my upgraded unit back & put trip FE in as a gauge. Ecstatic about that. Look forward to studying your post to...
