    I just filled up after my first 500 mile tank. Actually was driving home when the car rolled that 500th mile - and very shortly after, the low fuel light came on. I had to "top off" to get it to take 10 gallons. I LUV this car!!!

    thats great!<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(KCPrius\";p=\"91242)</div>
    Be very careful with "topping off" . There are many posts addressing this issue. You can actually damage your car and overfill is costly to your Pri and the environment...

    At $2 a gallon, adding another 85 cents isn't going to cause problems. Trust me...I've seen the problem with "overfilling" the tank -
