Its cool. I got the Insight because the honda dealer got a hybrid in first. 
And Sloth Ill still race you for pinks in the endurance race. Ill hit 113 and go 500 miles at that speed. you would have to stop for gas 2-3 times.

I win. 1976 Ford F-250 460 v8. 6 miles to the gallon city driving. Probably worse on the freeway cause I'm always tempted to go 85. Gotta fill her up on premium too, theres an extra dime per gallon at most of our stations.

Well, I don't know about your car, but the Prius only gets great gas mileage when in the city.... If yours works similarly, would you still win?

Pruis > Insight for city rats;
Insight > Prius for the out-doorsy types....
That pretty much sum it up?
Anyway, I don't take too many long drives, so it works for me. Besides, I'll take the 30mpg over his 6 any day.

As of when I left work today, gas was still $2.63 (on base), I plan on filling up when I leave work tomorrow if it's still that price.
