I just got my new Blue 2010 Prius III w/Solar a few weeks ago, and love it! I have been trying to use the hypermiling techniques I've read about in the threads here. The biggest problem I have is that there doesn't seem to be a "definitive" list of all the techniques, and a "definitive" how-to for some of them. I'm thinking it would be awesome if someone who knows a lot more than I, could create a "3rd-gen Prius hypermiling FAQ" thread, that would be updated as necessary, and stickied. I realize this may be unrealistic, as there may not be one "definitive" way of doing a certain technique, like Warp Stealth, but there could be mention of all the techniques. I guess the big problem would be that the master post would only be editable by its creater and the mods. But hey, who wants to give it a shot? Or, to point me to this if it actually does exist somewhere (I searched and could not find it). Thanks, Chris
I did read that, and it is very thorough. Thanks, Hobbit! I do still have some questions, though. I think I'll start a new topic, so more people will see the questions.
Try the videos linked in the first post of a thread here: http://priuschat.com/forums/gen-iii...max-mpg-driving-techniques-youtube-video.html These are great. I have only had my Gen III for several weeks, and I've gone back to see the videos a couple of times after what I learned the first time becaue habit.
