And I realized just how nice the FR-S is. The 49 mpg for the Prius is double what I got in the FR-s (all in-town driving) of 25.6 mpg but the FR-S is far more than double the fun of driving.

Such is life.

Yes and, as an added bonus, even with half the gas mileage you could drive both vehicles until they have 300k miles on them and the FR-S would still have done less global environmental damage!
