    We just returned from a Prius (2008) trip Vancouver Island thru both the US and Canada to Nova Scotia and return. For information we travelled 9093 miles and spent $577.06 (CAD) on gas with tire pressures 44*F and 42*B. On arrival in Yarmouth, NS the Engine Check Light came on which the code indicated "Miss-firing". Mechanic could not find nor repeat the problem so thought we'd picked up water in a gas fillup. Added 175 ml of STP Water Remover to tank of gas and had no further problems.
    Sure appreciated the beauty of the US and Canadian scenery and highways plus meeting really great folks along the way.
