That is what I have calculated, but there are far more factors than I know how to take into account.

I have mentioned the woman that said a Prius cost the same as any other car.

Then why was she not driving a Tesla. Then she clarified that it cost the same as a Civic or Corolla.

How did she figure?

So, hypermiling a Prius versus an Echo?

Driving a Prius like a maniac compared to an Echo?
