when has a prius gotten the claimed mpg? def not doing 70 mph on the interstate and the way most people drive. . .

if toyota can make a car get 100 mpg with the way most people drive then I'd be impressed. and 45 mpg is not a lot when considering I owned an 04 ion and got 40 mpg in it. gm needs to get it to 50+ before most people will really take notice.
