Default Re: Any Prius/HH Drivers? How's your MPG?

She drives clients around frequently, which adds weight and much less attentiveness to driving techniques.

I can't overstate the effectiveness of keeping tires inflated. I've kept the HH at 37/35 lately, and the Prius at 50/48 (though I'll likely bring the Prius down a bit since that's getting a little high, but my last couple of tanks have been MUCH better, even with declining temperatures.)

I checked out your HH earlier this week. It's the highest ranked one (KPez019's Hi Hy), so it was easy to find. According to her notes, she gets 28+ on the tanks where she's not trying. 31+ on the ones where she is.

I keep my Prius at 42/42. I noticed an immediate difference, when I took it up from the stock pressures. I'll bump it up again, tomorrow.
