When I refueled, I think I still had about 3.5 gallons left so I think 600 miles is definitely doable but I'm a bit scared to try.
As far as the Camry Hybrid, it probably would take you a long time to recoup the difference in terms of fuel savings unless you do a lot of stop and go driving. The hybrid setup works best in stop and go driving situations.

Good to hear, since our camrys are similar. With only 11K miles on the car I'm hoping I still have a little breakin to consider. I haven't taken my Camry on a long trip yet so maybe without to much stop and go, I'll get 35 mpg.
