Here is one of the more complete writeups on driving the Prius for maximum fuel economy. Study this and, as I think I suggested to you in another...
Someone reading that might be led to believe that somehow one can magically create energy using B and, therefore, improve fuel economy with it....
Thanks for posting. For comparison and validation, I have attached my spreadsheet where I have documented the same thing since 10/07. Mine has a...
Pretty cool! Do you know right off if he's offering an upgrade with this for the non-PHEV versions? Follow the links Jay provided. But it's...
Assuming steady speeds, the Prius' fuel economy decreases more or less linearly with speed above 20 MPH. The only blip in that line is at 40-41...
Even if your faith was better, I would still tell them what to do. Reports are common of dealers selling maintenance items that aren't needed and...
Above 40 MPH is not more efficient. Your logic is correct; better efficiency is obtained at speeds where the ICE routinely shuts down. Actually,...
1) Sorry, we sometimes forget that newbies don't know the vocabulary. :blush: MG1 and MG2 are the two motor/generator units. See this thread,...
A key point to using neutral effectively in a glide and, therefore, as a fuel-saving technique, is for the ICE to be off when the shift to neutral...
John has one of the longest-running logs of fuel usage. He uses the "just drive it" philosophy. Results are quite respectable, especially for...
You have two questions I'll answer: Is 42 safe? and, How does it ride? It is quite safe, and it could be argued, safer than 37. 37 isn't by...
I present my "why" in the link in my previous post. As it shows, there actually is more battery power consumed during a pedal-feathered glide....
1) Evan might have a different answer, but I "goose" the go-pedal just enough to get the ICE to light, then back off enough to allow modest...
Well, it's more warmish than Toronto ... even a tad more than Ballamer. ;) That helps in the winter but it hurts in the summer when the AC's on....
Most of my tanks are considerably better than 60 MPG. You can choose not to believe it; that's your right. The truth remains the truth still.
I can't answer your question about the heat exchanger (though my gut tells me it would be inefficient), but I will address this one. I use the...
On the roof.
I like the graphics of the interface. It's more polished than CAN-View. Whether it would provide more functionality or user-friendliness than CV...
It doesn't seem significant. I also have to run a long extension cord, 125'. I put my Kill-a-Watt on it when I hooked it up the first time, and...
Whichever one of you is standing in the middle needs to loosen up a bit. You look rather stiff. ;)
