    I read in the NY Times today about groups of Nissan Leaf enthusiasts getting together to discuss hacks/mods to their new electric vehicles. Are there similar Prius groups? I'd love to meet to share tips on how people are using their cars, what they've modified, etc.

    Searching thru this forum, there are a few postings between 2004 and 2009. Nothing newer.

    If they don't exist, is anyone interested in starting a Prius group in metro NYC?

    This is a group. We just don't meet face to face often. You won't find more information about the Prius and mods for the Prius than you will on this site. We are Prius gods! lol

    I'm hoping to start up gatherings here again. That sure was fun...

    ...all those years ago.

    With the plug-in and v and c on the way, imagine how much more interest there will be.
