    It's worse than that - Toyota put an arrow above the fuel guage to remind you which side of the car it's on!

    I knew I was a real hybrid owner when ...

    ... I started telling friends how many ounces of gas I use on my 13-mile ride to work! LOL

    Don't forget.

    Constantly on the lookout for a semi to drift behind to save on air resistance.

    This reminds me!

    You know you're a Prius driver when you forget how to operate the stupid Shifter in a "regular" car.

    (please note that "regular car" in this instances even includes the EVs that I've owned. The Prius shifter is one of my favorite parts of the car. No thinking, no missing, no looking. Completely intuitive - once you take the 30 seconds to learn it.)

    You know you're a Prius driver when . . .

    you use the navigation system to get to gas stations because you visit them so infrequently you have trouble remembering their locations.

    [You know you're a Prius driver when . . .

    you fill-up so infrequently you have to refer to the owner's manual to remind you where the gas cap is located...

    You LOVE bumper to bumper traffic cause you can easily get 100 mpg rolling along using only the battery!
    I got 3 consecutive bars pegged at the top tonight on my way home from work...YEAH!! I'm still learning about P&G techniques ;)
