Well, I guess the attraction of love could not last forever... The colder months are here in MD and with it is the great gas mileage I came to expect from my little Insight.

I am now getting around 35-38 mpg. Now that is not terrible considering that the car is rated at 38/40 mpg. Some small things that could have helped this car out would have been an electrical AC and heater element.

Additional things I have noticed is the car will start back up at a traffic light when the rear defrost is on....

Now whether or not you strive to get the best mileage out of your car, it seems that the winter months will be something to really test this car out.
