[3-Wheeler]

Maybe to add a little more perspective to the ultimate mpg's achievable....

Last summer on the way to LaCross on a hot summer day at 95°F here in Wisconsin, the Insight without the tail, averaged 87 mpg on mostly flat 55 mph roads over 150 miles.

I honestly don't think the car is capable of 95 mpg at 65 mph in it's current form, but I typically don't drive at those speeds either.

Now that the tail is on the car, and with the temperature at let's say 100°F, tires at 55 psi and again at 55 mph, I highly anticipate that the car could get over 95 mpg in those conditions. Flat, smooth road with no stops.

At the turtle speeds I normally drive on the back roads, to/from work, I expect to hit 130 mpg or so when it gets toasty hot this summer. This 130 number includes the normal stops and such, so the straight line numbers are much higher. This will be the first summer that the car is out of the garage and not having a major project done to it.
