Back from vacation results....

I mistakenly posted in the 2009 Prius section / I did repost
in the 2010 section /

Gross Vehicle Weight: 3,800 lbs / certified Dept. of Transportation Oregon truck scales

Passengers: 3 adults with luggage etc.

Trip: Seaside Oregon to San Francisco Ca and back.

Filled up at Seaside Oregon gas station and trip began.

Returned 4 days later and filled up at same gas staton.

Distance traveled: 1,483.1 Miles
Fuel used: 27.328 gallons ( reg gas with 10% Ethanol) Cal and OR gas)

MPG Calculated: 54.270

Route to San Francisco / Hwy 26 to Interstate 5
Route to Seaside Hwy 101

Speed 72 MPH to city speeds

AC on about 30 % of the time

Tires: Michelin Energy Saver / 195 X65X 15 with 44 PSI of Nitrogen
in each tire, (42,000 miles on tires) at least another 20,000 left.

Oil: Mobil One (0 W 20) filled with only 4 quarts of oil so not to
over fill.

Impressed with the MPG and overall handling of our Prius

I believe that no other vehicle you can buy in the U.S. today
can compare with the Prius for now....
