Toyota offered only a fully loaded Prius PHEV Z in Japan until recently, but now, they are offering a stripped-down Prius PHEV G with no front...
Giving me a lesson on motor oil 101? I am not trying to become an oil expert. I am an oil expert. You are not. LOL
He didn’t even have a basic understanding of how an HEV worked. He never defined what he meant by engine braking either. He probably thinks that...
Yep, it is only a name change: “Prime” wil become “plug-in hybrid” or “PHEV” for short. Toyota is actually renaming all their EVs explicitly as...
I don’t think so. See his post #7. He is talking about the B mode, not the D mode. He made it clear that he thought the engine never revolved with...
My explanation is not defying the laws of physics. You are refusing to understand concepts.
I am not sure why you are having problems with these concepts. Of course we are not talking about the instantaneous mpg. The instantaneous mpg is...
I have explained it twice already. See my two previous replies to you.
I thought I explained it clearly. The fuel consumption is not going up. There is no fuel consumption down the hill at all. Miles per gallon is...
Where did “without” come from? I am talking about the B mode. I said that the fuel economy was a lot worse in the B mode than in the D mode...
I thought his whole point was that the engine never revolved in the B mode with the ignition cut off. Yes, I see much worse fuel economy in the B...
It is not consuming gasoline. It is decreasing the electricity regeneration by inducing a drag through compression (pumping losses). In other...

I will copy and my paste my post about the original Valvoline Premium Blue Restore (not off-the-shelf Restore & Protect) from another forum here....

That TGMO 0W-8 is made by ExxonMobil! Plant code: 102 Date of manufacture: 2024/June (F = 06)/07. Formulation/revision number: 6633 A great...
Wow, that is a huge stash! Only the ExxonMobil-made TGMO has POE. I don’t know who makes TGMO 0W-8. Yes, it will be mostly Group III, but...
Mine is rated 54 mpg, but it is very easy to get over 60 mpg by being a little easy on the pedals. With hypermiling, which is being even easier on...
I would never use the Red Line oil, which has a high amount of polyol ester (POE) in the base oil. That is because it almost always results in...
