This is what happens when you get the wrong kind of enthusiast writing about something. If he doesn't respect it, he's not going to give it a fair shake. He doesn't, and he didn't.

Given his previous video with the insight:
Here’s What Happened When I Went Hypermiling In a Honda Insight
I was expecting a little more effort on his part. While his primary goal is still clearly to make an entertaining video, he seemed to take it more seriously with the Insight.
