    I filled the Prius today. Milege: 247. Temps between 55-78 degrees this week. No heat or A/C needed. All city driving. Computer said 51.5 MPG. Actual was 53.2 I'm impressed. We named our 2006 "Gumdrop". I call it a "he" as we can't decide which sex it fits.

    I used to drive 2 Metro 3 cyl. cars. They had no ba--s at all. The Prius is a powerhouse compared to them, and I feel when I floored it once to pass a truck it felt like a med. size 4 banger. It just keeps getting better. :)

    Walker1,
    Where are you? 55 to 78 degrees? I need to come live where you do.
    This morning the temp was 24 degrees and a whopping 42 on the drive home.

    I think I'm doing great at 53MPG avg for my second tank. I live in "The Hill City" which makes it tough to do any better. It's hard too in the morining with the temps.

    I like the name you chose... Gumdrop. It fits!

    Put your location in your profile so we all know where you are.
