Steve,

Great job!! I am working on a record tank (for me) in my Prius, I think 1000 miles is out of reach for me because I don't overfill, I may break 800 if I can keep it up, I am at 84.9 mpg at 487.3 miles, 900 is a possibility, but 1000 is a stretch with a 12 gallon tank. Keep up the great work, the temps in Georgia should be good for some record tanks thru Nov 1 up here in central Maine the weather is a tad colder, so I will be left far behind, hopefully I can manage a few more tanks in the 60s before it gets really cold. Keep up the great tanks.

Thanks dennis.
I used to quit filling at the first click-off and my range was also around 700-800 miles as I recall. My next tank is going to be "less than spectacular" as my wife is also driving it now for a while.

I've heard the Prius has a tank bladder which also limits capacity but 85MPG at almost 500 miles? Sheeeesh that's incredible and an honor to be on the same board here

Thanks Steve,

I'm just trying to keep up with you and Lake Dude, can't imagine what Dan K would be getting on his prius, 75 mpg in a non hybrid, crazy!
