Kindly contact me at terriljones@gmail.com, thanks very much!

Terril,
In our area we have the one who may have the ongoing hypermiling record for this gen Prius. He posts here as 'VABeachPrius'. We also may have the person posting here, also from our area, who has the most miles on his Gen2 Prius. He posts as 'Carbot'. Currently he's at 166,000 miles in 45 months and still going strong.
