Dang! I was hoping the car would do the math for me. I kept resetting the meter after each segment, and I haven't been consistent about writing down all the segment mileage so far. Oh well. no big deal. I have a general idea of what's possible, which is all I wanted for now.

Overall, I've been pretty pleased. This is the first time I've driven a Prius other than short trips at the dealer.

In 12F degree weather I was able to get 51.8 mpg on my 30 mile daily highway commute. Nice.

On the way home I took a combination in-town and hwy route. I got 59.7 in the City and 56.7 combined city/hwy for the entire trip. Pretty good considering the cold weather!
