Gerry....who proudly displays his "Old Yuppie" certificate (that
came with his Prius) on the back window of his beautiful and
elegant model that gets 57 MPG!!! and saves the world from global
warming. [:o)
You had it long enough to get any numbers on a long trip at 70-75mph?
Still sort of tempted to get a GM car with the 1.4L turbo, but I
think I've gotten over that bug. I'm thinking such a car would do
low 40s at 70mph or maybe 50 at 55mph. AFAIK, nothing available in
USA beats or even matches a 15 year old Honda Insight. The problem
with 2 seat Insights is that they're all either worn out with
200-300k miles on them, have dead batteries, or aren't for sale.
