    I'm not sure what you're asking re plug-in mods. Please elaborate.

    About "one ' ... fillup' ..." That will depend on what kind of driving you're doing.
    I have had over 500 miles on a 'full' tank and, more often, ~400-450. I have had a few tanks, very few, of less than 400. This is based on my data for an '04 and a small amount of data for an '06.

    cheers and welcome to PriusChat

    The plugin hybrid options first made by calcars.com are great. 2 companies are going to offer it this year, Edrive and Hymotion. It will be worth every penny to have more batteries and go with almost no fuel except electricity you plug in for at night off peak. It will help everyone at a cost of about 80 cents per gallon equivalent to gas..
