    Hello everyone,

    Just wondering how everyones July averages are coming. I just
    added fuel today after going 532 miles since my last fill-up. I added
    9.32 gallons.... so the calculations show 57 MPG. That's right on the
    money with the computer display's average. About 3/4 of the miles
    were highway miles @ 65-68 mph. My last fill-up netted me 50 MPG...
    so I changed a few things:
    1) No cruise control
    2) Cut back on AC usage and opened the windows

    With those two simple changes I gained 7 MPG.

    I love my Prius!! :D
