Assessing the gas mileage (51.9 mpg) he’s been getting on his hybrid Toyota Prius since he bought it on Earth Day two years, and 20,000 miles, ago.
The Idiot observes his 49th Earth Day by checking the performance and fuel economy of his 2017 Prius, which has averaged 51.9 miles-per-gallon since he bought it on his 47th Earth Day in 2017. The Idiot, who has a MEDTREK license plate on his car to promote his The Idiot and the Odyssey trilogy of travel narrative books, thinks he’s saving a buck and saving the earth.
