Sure it does. I say so. There, end of point. I'll even go as for to say they (gas-guzzler owners) are funding terrorism. There, that should work. I just excercised my 1st Amendment right.

Xcel and I initially got into an argument back a few years ago about millage claims. And I concieded on the fact that we were disputing 2 different experiences. I Made claims to his credibility in regards to millage and he made claims to my credibility regarding millage, both were false.
In regards to millage, broken motor mounts, etc You will find the cause all listed on my website. If you took the time to read it and leave your ignorance behind, you would see that the vast majority of failures are related to honda not properly diagnosing this vehicle.
Why do I claim you to be judgemental? I Never talked to you or anything yet you proceeded to make judgements on me without knowing my situation. It seems alot of hybrid owners belong to some special club where no one with opposing experiences is right, and somehow they must have caused it on themselves. Then I read your batteries failed as well. Interesting, so i find it ironic and want to make sure you realize the irony in your failures.
Im not looking for any browny points from Hybrid forums or the hybrid communinty, I compare some of your reactions though to those of holocost denier, but i will continue to provide my experiences to help those who are in the same situation.
Here are some statements made by delta flyer where he is was condoning judgements. Anyone else see the irony?
"Can't prove it, but I suspect an extended period of very aggressive driving will harm O2 sensors and catalytic converters.
I have no proof - just suspicions...." - WRONG Faulty o2 sensors by themselves caused the cat failures, funny how lots of other insight owners have also experienced o2 failures as well
"42.3 mpg lifetime, while not absoulte proof, strongly suggests he did not respect his Insight. Even CVT Insight can get 50mpg without much effort." - WRONG, Faulty o2 sensors were the cause of my low MPG, once replaced i was averaging 55mpg IN the winter w/deteriated battery pack
"BTW, his website asserts that all Honda hybrids are trash, just like the Insight - do you share that experience?" WRONG - I CLEARLY state "There are Honda Insight owners who have achieved great mileage and experienced thousands of miles incident free" in my manifesto
You Should have Let That Ancient Insight Dispute Rest
Let the members read your site, etc and make their own evaluation on your Insight experience.
My post regarding your Insight is facts off your own website, plus an observation your fuel economy is ununusually low, and at the end I agreeded with xcel.
It was a number of months ago, we had that dispute and it was over and forgotten - it seemed. I was not trying to bring it back up and until last night you were wise enough to do the same.
Opportunistically jumping in on a fight not involving you and doing the very thing you claim to detest - passing judgement. Somehow it does not register you started this by doing the very thing that offends you. This was of your own doing.
Your posts in this thread seems to be yet another example of denial.

Opportunistic? I see you making these "Hollyier then thou" statements and it reminds me of a time not so long ago when you were passing judgement left right and center, so by simply stating the irony and hypocrasy in the below statement you go to extreme lengths to try and disprove events that for the most part were even diagnosised with help by the people at I.C.

The flip side of being "judgemental" is to have no values. No values - no convictions. .
