Default Re: why manual much better MPG?

deb: i was getting 58 mpg with my "new" 2000 MT insight. a little showing off the uumph in first and second gear didnt help. then my FE went up to 60. then 65. and last tank was 69 mpg, for 707 miles, last night.

there IS a learning curve. you'll get there. just not quite as high as the MT version.

also, try insightcentral.net for lots of insight-specific info.
