I also would be interested in doing some testing with you, but would also need a GPS. I also have an mpguino setup in the car already.

How do you feel about programming? Since you've got a Prius, you could actually get all the information I'm gathering directly from the CAN bus (
http://www.vassfamily.net/ToyotaPrius/CAN/cindex.html), along with a lot of other goodies. Just connect two simple wires and a ground and hardware-wise you're good to go. There'd be a bit of programming on the software side (not much, I've already done most of it), and that'd be it for the logging. I'd be interested to try to build an efficiency curve from a Prius's drive cycle.
