    No matter how high your mpg is, you have to get it higher.

    I just had a best ever tankful (56.7). Am I happy? Yes. Am I celebrating?

    No.

    I feel the need...

    Shoudn't that be "the opposite of golf" unless you play as I do and consistently get a higher score.

    Hard to play around those moose hazards.

    LMAO!!!!! At first I thought about that but then realized what he really trying to say. But yes, I totally agree, I also get a higher score, although, I went to the driving range today and was doing pretty good. I also went golfing in Prescott, Az, on Monday and hit the ball to the green in one shot on a par 4!!! Other than that, my game "O.K.". :lol:

    Yeah, that's exactly what I meant. I said "higher" for the mpg but I should have said "better". I also started out by saying ...playing golf in reverse, but thought that sounded wierd. I knew you'd figure out what I meant.

    I'm no golfer but I suspect there are going to be some dissenting opinions to the golf crack!

    I mean truely higher numbers, as in a worse score. Just hit the ball around and purposely avoid the hole and you're good to go. We could be getting MPGs in the thousands if the Prius worked that way. :mrgreen:

    50 mpg

    Took a 2630.6 mile trip and averaged 50.0 mpg. I only used 52.6 gallons of gas.
