On a 250 mile, mostly 70-80MPH highway trip yesterday, I averaged 52.9MPG on the display (which is generally about 2MPG over the pump) in my '05. Only mods currently on it are LRR tires at 44PSI up front and 42 rear. I don't baby it, either, if I need full throttle to help facilitate a lane change, I give it full throttle.

I got several 60+MPG tanks when I first got my Prius. Part of it was a commute that was nearly perfect and the rest was me trying to see what my new toy could do. Now, like Daox said, I just drive it and get ~50MPG.
