Is there a thread where people can brag (;)) about their mileage?

    :D

    I know that Toyota makes the gauge read better mileage than it really is, but yesterday when I got home, my best was 61.7mpg and I averaged 59mpg.

    totally made my daily 57mile daily commute so much better! :cheer2:

    so anyway, just wondering if there was a thread already like that going on? Im new to this board and still getting lost.

    There is no shortage of threads on Priuschat, we can always make more!

    I get 46 MPG in my 2009, 42 in winter, 45 in summer and 48 in spring and fall. I travel to different customers each day but I average 110 miles a day. Much better than 24 MPG in a Subaru Forester.

    Congrats! This is part of what makes driving the Prius so much fun. And frustrating if you let it get to you.

    Great job on the mileage. :thumb:
    With winter coming, you might see it dropping but when Spring comes, watch out!

    And yeah, some of the other mileage threads get off topic so it never hurts to start a new one.

    We could always create a separate section in the photos forum for fuel mileage pics. :)

    Nice result Sophia, but I warn you: there is always a bigger braggart lurking ;) ;)
