If I compare it to the CX-5, which I daily drove up until we got the Prius:  Last spring, according to Fuelly, I averaged about 110 - 120 L per month.  Call it 115L.  What's the average gas price these days?  $1.65/L? 

That's $190/mo, approximately.

Well, I broke down and put gas in it today.  Due to a few out of town trips over the past couple of months, the Prius burned fuel at an alarming rate.  The last time I filled was March 18th, and today it had an 1/8th tank left.  It's going to the mechanic for an oil change and checkup on Tuesday, and I don't want him to think I'm neglecting it lol.  Anyway, we leave for Calgary in the first week of July, so I would be putting gas in it anyway.
