Sometimes all the stars align and this happens:
Oh yeah, baby! That’s 58.5 miles per gallon! With my 10 gallon tank, that means I can go 585 miles before I have to stop to get gas. Just as a reference, from Washington, DC to Pittsburgh, PA is 245 miles (per Google Maps), so I could go the whole way home and the whole way back again without having to stop to fill up. Princess Wendy Prius is a most excellent traveling companion.
Mostly I get around 50 or 51mpg in the city and 47 or 48mpg on road trips, but for some reason on this particular journey my mileage rocked! Now, if only I could get someone to dust Wendy’s insides… })i({
