Perfect car for commuting
Everybody asks what it is.
Great Car!
Hell of a lot of fun to drive, I get looks all say long! Handles very well, and can run at 75 mph all day long.

Insight 2003
This has been an excellent commuting car for my wife and I. We drive 125 miles round trip everyday. Unlike many of the Prius reviews, we are actually exceeding the DOT Mileage rating. In the winter time we were getting 60 to 62 mpg. With the warmer weather we are now achieveing 68 to 72 mpg. We found that the mileage was a little less for the first 3000 miles, as stated by the dealer, but after that break in period it has been an excellent performer. The car operates as any other car, a little sluggish on the long uphill home, we use third gear instead of fourth on our regular Honda.
Insight Fun to Drive
My Insight gets 68 mpg and it's peppy and fun to drive. It has an enormous head turning quotient and many people who see the car express interest and highly positive feelings about it. Some people have even thanked me that I cared enough about the environment to buy it.

This is my commute car. I drive 65 miles to and from work, down hill in the morning, no traffic, 55-60 miles all the way. I can get up to 92 miles a gallon especially following a flat bed truck on the flat. There is a speed between 53 and 58 at which the car seems to be running on electric only and charge at same time... amazing. My first 43,000 miles averages 60.8m/g. The 1200 miles from my house to Los Abgeles and back where with a 73m/g average. I have kept track of the mileage at each fillup and every 1000 miles if you need proof. I drove the car at 103 m/h down hill... it zooms. Only problem: leaky struts in back (covered by waranty).
