    My husband and I just returned from our 2nd Road-trip in the Prius..

    4,800 miles. Nearly the length of Africa (North to South). (Went from AZ to FL, GA, & Back!)

    75+ hours of driving time. 270,000 seconds of our lives we'll never get back.

    40+ mpg and only $430 in gas for our beloved Prius. Priceless...

    So what was the breakdown?
    Total Miles in Gas (haven't filled up last tank yet)
    MILES = 4754
    Total Gallons = 112.553
    Do the Math = 42.23787904 (Average mpg)
    Total Spent on Gas = $426.92
    & 1 VERY dirty Prius!

    Not bad considering we ranged in speeds from 70-85 mph!

    oops big picture... I'll fix it tomorrow!
