Seems the group thread is a hit - good idea, Bruce!

Team Metro is ahead of us at 52.26 mpg.

I have a conflict of interest here, being a member of that team too.
The good news for Team Honda though is I'm driving the Insight during the warm months, when it can get spectacular MPG, and the Firefly (Metro ) in the cold ones, when it doesn't.
I don't fill up the Insight a whole lot (I don't commute). My next fill will probably be later this month or very early August. The good news is I
think it's going to be my best tank so far: 93.5 mpg showing on the OEM computer @ 700 miles (no promises). ~1/3 tank remaining.
I still have a bunch of other mods I want to do to the car, but too many other things on the go, it seems. They're on the list!

Tried a
beaded seat cover yet? You might be surprised how much more comfortable it is with the air gap they provide. I call mine "my air conditioning" - it goes in the car for maybe 6 weeks of the year.

Wow! That's a huge jump. Congrats!

Is there much benefit over 50 PSI? That's where I have my tires.

I generally don't go above 55. Diminishing returns aren't worth the increasingly harsh ride ... and the reduced grip on loose surfaces (I do drive on gravel roads from time to time - though lift-off oversteer can be fun
).

I need to do more aero stuff and install my CRX HF trans for a 1000 RPM drop in cruising RPM.
