Today I struck the hybrid watcher's jackpot, two Prius at a gas station, lined up, both gassing up. My Prius dropped down to three pips on the gas gauge after I'd dropped off the freeway to begin my 2 mile straight shot work is practically on the freeway after a 45 minute drive. Yesterday's trip took me down to half a tank and driving home from work dropped me to four pips, I refuel at three pips when possible. I do this because I refuse to become of the Prius owners who complain about the car suddenly stopping (because I was trying to drive without fuel) and wondering why. NHW20 Prius have a message that pops up on the multi-function display (MFD) that says to add fuel immediately but it can be missed, though not easily. I had been at three pips for the latter half of my commute and the temperature was perfect for refueling, so I stopped at the nearest Top Tier gas station to work, a Shell. The driver of a black 2006+ Prius(if anyone wants their 06 or new photographed alongside my 04 I will point out the differences) chose the same place and time to fill and the only available pump (facing the car's left) was right in front of this car and driver pair. As I mentioned in an earlier post multiple Prius filling together are quite rare because of their fuel efficiency. Share it!             Trackback(0)

I knew if anybody did it, it'd be you or a Toyota employee. You forgot you did this earlier this year with the lady that taught you "Beat the Screen". With the diffence being two Prius at the same gas station (also a Shell) and two Prius togeather at the same station. |

I didn't forget them, I just didn't see that as relevant, they were on the other side of the station, and this was two Prius in a row, but yes Alexander, you are correct. |
