Speaking of my Prius . . .



Left the house today and got gas. Drove to Roanoke and back, a combination of highway and city miles. I didn't use the ECO mode (makes the car drive like a Yugo); I drove at or above the speed limit; and my tires are not overinflated (which improves Prius gas mileage).

Yep. 64.7 mpg. It won't last for the full tank of gas, but it's fun to see. Most tanks of gas average 57 mpg. I really do love this car.

With these gas prices, I'm thinking we should have shopped around a little more to see what kind of mileage other cars get before we bought our Durango... You're getting GREAT mileage :)

Oh, I was going to say ours also has an ECO mode which is fun to watch!
