Last fill up every.... put me at number 1

So I went to update my fuel log with what will probably end up being my last fill up ever on this car and low and behold it put me at number 1..... 90 day average 82.15mpg, which puts it at tops for Hybrid, gas and diesel. Wow I love the insight....

but...

It will probably be the last fill ever for any personal car as I'll be getting a leaf soon. The cost of having a family car (MDX) and a commuter car (insight), although resonable is still a lot. I had planned on keeping them 5 years and then looking for an electric but I double and tripple checked the numbers and couldn't resist doing it now.

So the new plan is in 4-5 years if the leaf fits the bill and is good enough on range keep it and convince the wife to go electric from her prius.

The insight will probably end up staying in the family as my aunt is in need of a car. That will at least allow me to borrow it if work ever sends me on a 600km training trip.
