The plug-ins are pretty impressive but there's something to be said (and alot of money to be saved) if you are handy enough to approach 80, 90 or 100+ mpg in a modded vehicle.

A guy at priuschat.com (nickname THEFORCE from Wheelersburg, OH) is approaching 2000 miles on a single 11.9 gallon tank (it is a plug-in). He will be at Hybridfest so if you're there look him up. His name is Jay Groh at jaygroh.com if you want to check out his car. I know he has it modded up and has Can-View and EV button. He's won the People's Choice Award at Hybridfest the last two years.
