Oh, not too much going on with the car. I'm just settling into it a bit more and trying to figure out all the quirks. I'm also trying to train the wife how to drive it a bit better. I've mainly been using super highway mode to and from work on the highway. With it, I've been slowly upping the mileage. I seem to be pretty consistently getting low 60s on the way to work. On the way home traffic is a lot heavier. Sometimes this means I can really crank out the mileage, but most of the time I can only hit high 50s on the way home.

I will be going to the Milwaukee hybrid group meet this weekend and picking up a block heater and service manual. So, it'll have a block heater soon enough. The service manual will help out with another mod I want to do too. And, I'd really like to at least get a partial grill block done sometime soon. We'll see how things pan out though.
