Hi All:

___The HCH’ers in this thread should consider themselves lucky … An Insight 5-speed not only has to track 2 tires through the spray, they track all 4 due to the unique aerodynamics and the way the F & R tracks were setup to minimize it. The result is a total loss of lean burn due to the much higher RR and you can easily get nailed by 25 - 35 mpg or more off a normal 105 - 110 mpg cruise

___Good Luck
