Just thought I would drop a note to all of you as you played a key role (wihout knowing it) in my decision to purchase an Insight.
My current ride is a 2000 Ford Excursion V-10. After spending over $600 last month (California gas prices) I decided to do something I almost did in 2000, buy and Insight.
After spending much of the last couple of weeks reading the different posts, my driving habits in the Excursion have changed and my milage has increased from 11.1 to 15.2, that is huge! Thanks a bunch.
Starting next week I will be commuting (50 miles a day RT) in a '03 CVT, and we are looking forward to it.
We are keeping the Excursion as we spend our summers boating on the Sacramento River and winters snowmobiling in the Sierra's, so it has it's place.
Our other cars are a 03 Jaguar S-type "R" and a 97 Jeep Cherokee Sport (pull behind the motorhome). We also race offshore powerboats if any of you have any interest in that sport.
Best wishes and thank you for your help,
Rick
