Richard, I know you are exhausted :) but I learned on another thread that GLIDE = a single arrow from battery to the motor and COAST = no arrows...
To just add to this (and pls confirm/correct if I am wrong): No pressure: One single arrow from motor to battery on display Tiny pressure: No...
Okay - thanks for clarifying the definitions. I thought Glide = No arrrows on the MFD. Why would then Glide be better than coast (because in the...
Jim/Sagebrush - Good points. I guess this means that the key technological advantage of the battery in the Prius is to *support/assist* the ICE...
SageBrush - 55 mpg in winter is pretty darn good. I'm barely stretching 50-51 (but hope to push higher after fine tuning my technique) Another...
To go back to an earlier comment, I would agree (in general) about the arrogance of toyota salesmen - it is over the top and was especially so...
Can any of the hypermilers please throw some light on the following (and what you would expect to see on the MFD in each instance): 1) What is...
Thanks a ton - patrick and dogfriend and all. So whats the best way to tell if my alignment is off (without taking it to the dealer just yet)...
Is the 'steering wheel off' the same as the car being 'out of alignment' OR could you have the steering wheel off and still have the car IN...
My steering wheel is not straight (tilted to the right) and I am thinking - this could be an alignment issue? The only way to check this is if you...
Richard/DeadPhosh, I see your point about engine size <--> efficiency. But really, what *is* the point of the battery/motor and how best to take...
What an interesting model this to plot data....!
Would someone be kind enough to tell me what the following denote: 1)S1, S2, S3, S4...? 2) "EV Button" 3) EBH
Richard, Interesting points those. Two seem counter-intuitive: 1) Why "accelerate briskly" as opposed to "starting off from a dead-stop very...
Codyroo you are lucky. In my case, Costco would not go above 35 (not even upto the manufacturer max spec of 44/42) - and I have 4 OEMs (equal in...
Tom - thanks for outlining the concept. It seems that: the harder you press the brake pedal, the more you charge the motor (via the wheels). How...
Cwerdna - thanks for the link. Interesting read. We have to remember two caveats though (1) This applies to newer and mostly automatic cars in...
I wanted to get my Bridgestone Potenza OEM (185/65R15 88H) inflated to 46/44 or even 44/42 but Costco would not even touch it (the manufacturer...
Makes sense - thanks. BTW, how does "regenerative braking" work - do you happen to have any handy links to this? I find this concept pretty...
