    I have 1500 miles on the car to date and I am blown away by the MPG's I am getting. I have gotten into a pretty good charging routine and without going into a big review I just wanted to say that I am amazed at the economy and hope that this purchase pays off in the long run. I thought the routine of having a plug in car would be more challenging than it has been to get used to.

    I have 1400+ miles on my PIP- my lifetime (a full month as of yesterday) is 89mpg indicated.
    Before the PIP I had a 2012 Prius Five (w/the 17" wheels) my lifetime MPG (about 7 months) was 50.3mpg indicated.
    The PIP is an amazing vehicle!

    Same here, I love my Prius level 4 2011. Now I love my PIP 2012 even more.
