Nice mods! My Prius is looking pretty lame with just a lower grille block and pumped up tires.

The fuel tank bladder is the devil. Makes it impossible to get consistent fills and kills the range, especially in the cold. It's an 11.9 gallon tank and the most I've put in it was 9.2 gallons on a warm day with the low fuel light on. Even doing 80MPH into a headwind (blasphamy!), I should be able to easily go more than 400 miles on a tank, but I usually fill at about 250 miles in the winter.
