Let's see... $5 a gal. For me that would be about $40. I was paying $80 to fill my disel F250. Gas would have to increase to $8-$10 for me to pay $10k on that system.

compare the 10K to trading in for a new prius which may also cost you 10K and still not get 100+ mpg. I bought a used 05 prius and added the 10 Kw $12K plug-in system. It's better than a 2012 Prius plugin from Toyota t $48K. I can and do go 30-35 miles all electric at up to 52 mph and charge at night off peak. I also have solar so it's like free no pollution fuel.

That's awesome. Did you install it yourself? Are there going to be issues in getting your car serviced regularly?
