I don't think you will get huge milage numbers in 5 mile trips unless its a straight shot with no lights or anything. The car will barely warm up by the time you get to your destination and most of the FE features seem to only be effective when the car is warmed up. If you haven't already you should read the Driving for Efficiency at http://www.greenhybrid.com/learn/article/6 in the Learn section.
