    Here's a clear example of a situation in which an authorative reply from Toyota would be very useful. What is the capacity of the fuel tank? 11.9 or 13+ gallons?

    Of course that's only for US Tanks with the Bladder. Prii without the Tank Bladder have larger capacities.

    Is the manual infalible and 100 percent correct in all its content? The short answer is no, for the long answer read the posts under this topic and elsewhere in this forum.

    nothing done by man no matter what it is, is infalible. typo's and just plain downright obvious as the nose on your face omissions happen every day.

    but this isnt one of em.

    Saturday morning I had an errand to Collierville and was down to 2 bars. So stopped at the Exxon at Poplar and Forest Hill Irene (chartquist's station) and filled up at pump 2.

    Using my normal first notch to first cutoff, it was 8.52 gallons. This was only .3 gallons less than my first fillup at 2 bars at the Exxon at Poplar and Germantown.
