    I am a newbie to the PRIUS family (01/03/2023) and have not yet introduced myself "officially" on the forum, sorry...!
    OKAY, Reading thru all these posts and getting tired but wanted to share that I bought a BASE Gen 4 with 208K miles on it. It was a patrol vehicle and I do believe that it was used daily, like never sat and thus the battery is good(fingers crossed)...
    Getting 53 to 69 MPG using tricks and stuff learned from previous vehicles but mainly letting the car do its thing.

    Not a first HYBRID car owner(2010 Insight), but looking to achieve many a mile with this one after doing the maintenance in a couple of weeks. Believe that this one will take me to 350-400K ...

    Welcome bikeprof to the Prius family. 53-69 mpg is very good! How fast are you driving on the freeway?

    On freeway, going about 2-5 mph of posted speeds, whichever is slow lane that's the one I change to...(2nd or 3rd slow lane usually flow better than right lane and have trucks)
