Hi friends; Just found this sight.........I am Billy from Pasco, WA I am a financial advisor and aircraft owner & pilot. I have owned 2 Insight 5 speeds, both purchased new. Presently I have a 2003 with 27,000 miles. I LOVE driving it on long trips. My lifetime average is 86.2 mpg (verified with my GPS and fuel receipts) I just put a little extra air in the tires and slow down slightly. The car seems to prefer warm or hot weather; this summer I was routinely getting 93 mpg on long trips. Anyway, greetings to all! Billy......

Welcome to GreenHybrid! I look forward to seeing your logs in the Real Hybrid Mileage Database. Want to help advise me on my finances? I need to get all that cash out of my checking account, haha. What a waste.

billy6,
You are certainly among friends here. I am glad to see you posted you mileage in the database. Any possibility you might consider entering individual tanks in the future. I'd love to see more data on a regular basis. You warm weather people have it made.
It was 27 degrees here this morning and the mileage suffers.
