I drove in the alternative fuel car parade for Earth Day in Balboa Park, San Diego on Sunday. Several other Priusclub San Diego members were also there, plus some other vehicles. Behind me was a lovely Honda Insight. Turns out the owner had driven down from Seattle; got 92 mpg. His name is Bill and...he was one of the four guys that drove that Prius in Pennsylvania over 100mpg.
neat. if it could have seated more than 2 i would have had that before i got the 2generation prius. my art teacher in college has one. she loves it.
Huh. I thought the fantastic four were Wayne Gerdes from Chicago, Dave Bassage from WV, Dan Kroushl from PA, Rick Reese, and a Honda Civic owner lawyer from the East Coast whose name is escaping me

They did hold the longest distance on a tank up until the PA run, but Prius is Japan does not have a bladder, and holds about 15 gallons of fuel.
actually, it doesn't hold 15 gallons. It has the exact same size as ours. The reason they can hold more? They force it in. The left rear tyre is raised such that the car and hence the tank is tilted.
