Okay, so my luck ran out. Who's got that statistic? Driving X amount of miles with a Prius is the equivalent of spilling X cups of gasoline?
No, I didn't try and fill my tank as much as I could. I didn't push my limits to get over the 600 miles-on-a-tank mark. I just tried to fill up
Used about 8 gallons. 50.5 MPG and 399 miles. Woohoo. My best yet. Stick the pump in, press. Wait a minute, it popped back up. Pressed. Popped back up. It's like topping off from the very beginning! Gave my hand a nice workout for about 2 gallons. Pressed the "help" button and the guy comes out. Tests it himself, and confirms that my tank and the pump don't go like peas and carrots. Fine, fine. I continue my workout and get to about 6.5 gallons. I hear a gurgle. Gurgle isn't good. Nope. Pulled out the pump. Okay, I pulled out half the tank of gas, too. At least a cup, likely more, gets burped up. Spills down the side of my car and onto the ground. Brilliant. Just brilliant.
And, so, what's that statistic?
