Pulse and glide is the key to good city and lower speed driving in the Prius. Depending on your route, you'll gain at least a few MPG's when you get it figured out. It became second nature to me before I got my Insight, now I have to think about it a little (I try to do stead speed in lean burn in the Insight).

I like that analog gauge cluster. Digital can look pretty neat, but there's nothing like watching a needle sweep as you accelerate.
