    I used to follow big trucks when we drove RAV4's a lot. Now I just cruise on by if they are going slow. Looks like your getting better mpg's not following big trucks :D I imagine your right foot has adapted to that mpg meter and you got it trained for higher numbers now. A real challenge for me is driving a Sienna and getting it over 27 mpg. It is possible :)Safe travels,

    Retiring the Prius as my work car and handing it off to my wife with 24k miles on it. Drove something much quieter and quicker on Friday night that for me thinking and today I picked up a Lexus GS430 that will be my daily driver. I will definitely miss the mpg but man this thing purrsssss. 98hp to 300hp is a big difference :)

    I'll still be around here though as we're keeping the Prius.

    Got my Toyota dealer to swap my rims for my 25k mile maintenance. Now we are ready for the winter.

    I'm going to miss Toyota care, love getting free maintenance.

    It was so nice to fill the Prius up today, only took $27.00. That V8 in the Lexus is killing me.
