    I'd also be interested in an extended range battery pack. I receive my plug-in this week.

    I am very interested in adding batteries to improve my ev mode miles. I have a 2005 Prius with navigation, and Sirius radio, Bluetooth, installed the ev in the dash already. The car is mine and paid off and only has about 25k miles. Low 50's mpg right now, I have Michelin lrr energy saving tires on it as well. I do have a a little chrome around windows but still looks nice let me know what you had on your mind. Everything on the car works and drives perfect down the road. The car is used to go to and from college 65 miles each way 2 days a week for the next few 3-4 years.
