I have had Brienne for two weeks now and my average MPG is going up. Learning to drive her has been a bit awkward. I am use to zipping along in Mr. Weasley and "punching it" when I have to go up some steep grades on my way to and from work. With Brienne I have noticed that she is less zippy but the trade off is the better milage.
This week on the way to work there was a very bad pile up - two big rigs with one being flipped and they took out a car or two. The highway was a mess and at times a complete standstill and when it was moving, it was less than 5 mph. BUT the advantage to this, if there is one, was that most of the time it took me to go 45 miles past the accident Brienne was running as an electric vehicle and after I cleared the accident the traffic opened up and I was able to cover the last 20 miles under 'normal power.
This is from when I was stuck in traffic

Then this picture of when I got to work and parked. Yeah, it was a 2.5 hour drive that morning - which is 1.5 hours longer than it should be <sigh>
And for some fun, I went looking for a stick to put on my car to help me find it in a parking lot. There are a lot of silver Prius C's out there so these are the two I found.
Now, I don't understand why Brienne of Tarth is smaller than Arya Stark, it should be the other way around, but that's the way the artist did them. So I figure that Brienne is further away and both of them are going to the left cause there is someone around the left corner of the car that they have to fend(er) off.

And then I found this. It might be the next thing I put on the car.
