Thanks FordMan! I had a safe trip up to Kansas City and back. It was a horrible day for driving, with winds blowing 20-40 mph constantly. I still averaged almost 76 mpg for the entire trip.

The window was mine for $92, right at 50% less than a brand new one. It was in really good shape, and now I can drive and not worry about random spring showers soaking the inside of the car!

Ecky, that is amazing, super impressive! This the fuel I need, because I will not be outdone when it comes to mpg!

Let's be fair Ecky, you have lean burn and IMA and AFAIR, all of the stock aero mods. I lack LB, IMA and most of the aero mods. I'm like a fish out of water with my Insight! But I'm making it work

Now for some bad news... while getting the window installed at my buddy's house this past Sunday, I discovered that my driver side front tire had broken a belt! I've been hoping it wouldn't get worse, but the entire tire is on the verge of disintegrating and I have no choice but to keep driving on it I'm hoping I can make it the 1.5 miles to work and get my spare on in the morning.

In accordance to that, I gave Tire Rack $378 for 4 brand new RE92s today. They will be here next week and I can't wait to have them on!
