    I made a short film recently about the Prius, which can be found at:

    www.amazon.com/screeningroom

    You won't be able to find it directly, because viewers are assigned to films at random, but you may get lucky, and you might enjoy watching my competition.

    eventually, it will be online at www.priusenvyfilm.com

    thanks!

    Gaithersburg,
    This really isn't the appropriate thread for this question. Take a look under the Fuel Economy forum and you'll find about 100 questions exactly like yours.

    Also, take a look at my article in the Knowledge Base section FAQs titled "Why Don't I get the EPA numbers".

    FWIW, they won't run over your 'little' Prius if you drive at or just above the speed limit, but you can do a lot of things to improve your mileage by just increasing your following and braking distances. Read the article then repost your question in the fuel economy section if you can't find anything else that already answers your questions.

    Actually, to help you out around here, Evan (efusco) is a moderator/long time user of this forum, and like most forum moderators, he is here to help keep the content on-topic and organized, and help those that are new around here. In the future, you can edit your post, so that you can say that you put in the wrong text, and that you are posting it in the right place. Most of us will try to help out someone that seems to be lost and in the wrong area, and won't leave a question unanswered if we can help.

    Hope it helps you, and hope you can get the answers you need.

    Just watched the Prius video. Pretty funny! Saw a few other interesting ones, too.

    hey man... for some reasons your intention didnt come over the net, nor did your level of forum expertise. many people here post to the wrong thread and dont realize it. just how are we supposed to know that you are not one of them?

    All I get from the link on Amazon is "coming soon" and from the Priusenvy link another like to the Amazon "coming soon".

    Anyone else having problems?

    You really don't have to react like that. If you read these forums for awhile you will see that Evan is a very friendly guy who will lend his advice on many topics. Even in his request for you to stay on topic he gave you some helpful places to find advice on your problem. Let's just stay calm and we can all get along.

    Oh look... now I've gone off-topic too. I will go watch the prius film to make up for it.

    yeah, legally i cannot put the film on my website (www.priusenvyfilm.com) until the festival is over. but you should be able to get to the festival through www.amazon.com/screeningroom. if that doesn't work, go to the main amazon.com page, then at the lower left there is a link to the short film competition, and that should be pretty self explanatory from here.

    You can skip each film after 30 secs. A button comes up and you can go to the next one. Been through about 4 so far...not sure how long more I'll do this for....

    I've been watching, and watching, and watching...still no Prius. How many movies are there - do you know?
    Some are pretty good.

    sadly, Prius Envy the film didn't not win the amazon.com film festival (big surprise).

    happily, i can now put it on my own website!

    www.priusenvyfilm.com

    (it might take a minute or two to load)

    let me know what you think!
