    My Prius milage

    Someone earlier asked about Prius mileage. On my 2003 Prius (before the redesign) I've been getting around 43.5 MPG based on the onboard display in the warmer months, in the colder months it tends to drop about 2-3 MPG. Driving is mostly suburban and city.

    I could probably squeeze more MPG out of it with less A/C use, or if I drove more than my wife, who doesn't take it as a personal challenge to increase the MPG number every time she's behind the wheel.
