Driving in the rain is also challenging. In Dallas, there is often wind when it rains. I've noticed that unless the rain is really heavy driving at highway speeds, the airflow will deflect the rain completly off the Insight's hatchback window.

My worst FE ever was an evening commute on December 15, 2000. The trip was 25 miles. Left early from work and traffic was good for the first 20 minutes, then it was a 2-3 miles per hour parking lot the next four hours. Got 25 mpg on that trip, when 55-60 would be typical.

61.5mpg lifetime - 82mpg in recent months
