kelpdiver 2 #27 July 5, 2007 > And the Prius is MUCH faster if both vehicles have empty tanks! up till the point where the battery won't do the job. I can push a motorcycle alone - it's 400-550lbs. But to catch up would take quite a while, even if the prius is only able to go a couple miles on battery. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
akarunway 1 #28 July 6, 2007 Quote >100mph has got to knock the mpg down to at least 30. Can you check >it out on the way home and get back to us Bill? Well, averaging 90 gets you about 36mpg, so . . . Damn. I got PA'd for going 95 mph. Is there a diff between 90 and 95?I hold it true, whate'er befall; I feel it, when I sorrow most; 'Tis better to have loved and lost Than never to have loved at all.

sundevil777 102 #29 July 6, 2007 QuoteI also had no idea the Prius could do 100mph. I would expect it from any car that is able to go 65 mph up steep highway hills. Of course some cars can't do that.People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired. I’m certainly not, and I’m sick and tired of being told that I am Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
