I went on a Pokemon Go trip with my good buddy Saturday afternoon. We went to Mammoth Springs, where water Pokemon spawn constantly. I told him that my long shot goal was 70 mpg, but I was realistic and said 65 mpg would be more likely.

Remember that I have almost no experience driving the Insight, I have no IMA function whatsoever, the terrain is never flat and he added 260 pounds on top of my weight of 180. Total weight of the Insight was in the neighborhood of 2300 pounds.

I did what I thought I couldn't do!



The return trip was even better! A lil longer due to going to Wendy's on the opposite side of town
