It’s fairly common amongst hardcore prius owners to accelerate at slower/different speeds in order to keep the gas engine from turning on. All to save 4 mpg. :bowrofl: ---

And it makes peoples blood boil there should be a law that if you’re a hyper miler, you’re not allowed to drive in heavy traffic and especially the hammer lane ---

I wonder what the cost savings in gas vs cost of the stupid shit that will add up to repairs will be. ---

Plus reverse is a low gear and it will eat up a little more gas, because there isn’t a higher gear to shift into. > I’ve been doing fairly well so far, except for at work a couple times and the movie theater once. I had to go over a curb each time to prevent me from having to go into reverse. I bent a tie rod, and screwed up my sub frame a bit. It was over $2400 in repairs and labor, but the gas savings is worth it. > I have a 7-Passenger luxury SUV, so I also haven’t allowed anyone to drive with me, for fear that the extra weight will take a toll on my mileage. I make my girlfriend drive her own truck places and just follow me. Before you accuse me of being a bad boyfriend, I do give her gas money to follow me. $80 just this week! ---

> At highway speeds you could remove the belt from your P/S pump, and you wouldn’t feel any different. (Please, nobody try to remove their belt while driving at highway speeds!) The only time you need P/S is in parking lots. I loled hard at that. I actually enjoy never having to put gas in my honda. when 40$ gets you 400 miles apposed to ~260 miles, its awesome. I find myself driving alot more and alot less frustrated about having to turn around because my wife is an idiot who forgets her shadow. ---
