Not to rub it in, but our last tank in town was 34.5 MPG. We just came back from a 350 mile road trip and the dash reads 32.9 so it will likely calculate out to about 31.4 as the dash consistently reads about 1.5 mpg over the actual. We have enjoyed our hybrid and have no complaints about the power or the frequently maligned CVT transmission. The package works well for us.
