Most people aren't willing to entertain the idea putting effort into attaining good FE. Likely in this situation, the Prius was bought with the intention to easily get the good mileage and consequently flaunt it.

The funny part, 7 isn't that good for a Prius! I know it's possible to get less than 6 without really trying, and 5.14L/100Km with limited experience in hybrids and some EcoDriving experience.

You're doing your part, and that's what matters.
