    Ok I'm tired of bashing Alex Smith and Mike Singletary, so I'll move onto a different 49er.

    How does Steve Young achieve such low mileage with his Prius?!?! In his commercials I think he says that he gets 42-46 mpg and he's driving slowly to work on his mileage. That is blasphemy. Sound off PriusChatters...

    If he is driving slowly, the only way his fuel economy is that low is short trips and lots of hills.

    San Francisco is lots of hills, and what they call "a hill" most people would call "a cliff". And, of course, lots of stop and go traffic.

    Come to think about it, I just described my typical drive.
