It felt a little wierd how the Insight would automatically start and stop the engine when you put it in, or took it out of gear.

It made me wonder how difficult it would be to modify my truck to do the same thing.

Everyone was really interested in my EV's. I didn't bring the motorcycle out because it was an hour's ride away, raining, AND were taking the meeting on the road.
