    On my 2012 Prius 2, I can not figure out where to find my total MPG????

    On "trip A" and "B" it's listed, but I can't find where it has my total MPG? Help!

    Doesn't exist. I use trip A for total and trip B for 'trips'.

    Bummer!

    As far as I'm concerned, that was a bit of an oversight on their part. On my wife's V, you can see total miles and MPG at the same time.

    Ummm, the on-line manual, page 229, indicates you may be wrong. At least as far as the 2012s are concerned. I didn't check the manual for 2011.

    You should be able to cycle through ODO, TRIP A, TRIP B.

    When you say "total MPG" do you mean "Lifetime MPG"? As in if you've driven 5000 miles, what your displayed MPG is for the 5000 miles?

    Or do you mean when you show the odometer on the display 5000 miles, that you don't see the MPG for the current tank?

    True, but ODO doesn't have MPG, at least on my 2010 II it doesn't.

    I have a 2012 and when I cycle through to the ODO screen, the MPG disappears.

    hit the Trip button to enter each trip mode, then try fiddling with the Display button in each mode to see what you get...

    Lifetime mpg isn't useful information anyway after enough distance.

    There is no lifetime mpg on our cars.

    And even if there was, it's still not perfectly accurate anyway. I find that tank-to-tank, the calculated MPG is usually 3 or 4 MPG less than what the computer says.

    And it would be cool if you could update and view your Fuelly info via Entune. :cool:
