Default Re: Dropping first tank for star?

Is some maintenance going on?

I just noticed "Prius 03" has a star under the "Prius I" list. But my earlier posting signatures as well as this one show the current "48.2" MPG without a star. My calculated 'star threshold' is "48.5" MPG.

How or when are "stars" calculated and added?

It might be nice to include in the vehicle summary the current 'star' threshold value. If someone is close, they might make the extra effort. Someone far away might be inspired to do a little research and impove. Those who are slipping will get a 'wake-up.'

This post is as much a signature test as wondering about "stars." What it also reveals is though I was not motivated by 'status' to buy a Prius, 'star status' is important.
