    I went on fuelly.com to start tracking MPG on my new 2014 'v' (lowercase = wagon) and they aren't set up for the 'v', only the 'V'. Is anyone with a 'v' on fuelly and what do you have your 'v' registered as?

    The V on fuely is most likely the v wagon. It wouldn't make much sense to track the fuel economy of the five.

    They list: Prius, Prius-C and Prius-V. Guess which one the wagon is?

    Mine simply says Prius V. At some point, I would hope that Toyota could get some sanity into their model/trim names.
    They could start by using familiar model names.

    ie: Prius V SE, LE, XLE, GLE whatever. The Three and Five are pretty lame IMO.

    I am, see below.

    There are probably some on fuelly registered as Prius V who have different cars from the wagons and their 60+ MPG distorts the averages.

    I scrolled through the 2012 prius v's on fuelly and checked out the highest and the lowest mpg and found input errors to be the cause of 64MPG (83 Fuel-ups, Property of dctomtom [​IMG] ) and 4.8MPG (136 Fuel-ups, Property of hsnyder [​IMG]) One fill-up of 1500 miles on 8.9 gal and one fill-up of 8,748,000 gal respectively.

    So there are probably more reasons for extreme fuelly entries than we can ever imagine, but a lot of them can be chalked up to user error.
