Is it possible to make a standard outlet in the Prius? I know little about such things, but I'm talking about the type of outlet you'd find in a house.

For what would you like to do this? What do you want to power?

I like MikeRT's reply - though I have a DC-plug 350-watt unit I use occasionally inside the car. WalMart, etc. prices on the units are generally a little better than RadioShack.

The Prius does present a special challange with it's tiny battery though. I used to run a radio out of a car by using a small gelcel battery about half the size of the Prius battery and a small inverter - worked great for several hours!
