how was it a trick by no means is it false advertising, unless you have another way of getting 70mpg besides a bike, let me know, everyone has something negative to say on every single on these posts, it is unnecessary, first comment i got was about not havinbg a penis and then the bashing started, i didnt say hey buy an insight or else, all i said was...

"buy a honda insight i have had one for a year and a half and i am getting 60-70 mpg consistantly, the car is rated for 61-70 and they weren't lieing. they are fun to drive too, you may look like a dork but who cares your savin a ton of money with gas prices these days"

i was trying to be pass on something that some might appreciate, look i'm done listeng to all you all's fag comments, grow up

Ok, I was actually being serious.

You thread title lured me to your thread, only to find out something that's not a secret.

THAT IS FALSE ADVERTISEMENT. you had no secret, yet claimed to have some secret squirrel high MPG method.


and LEARN TO FUCKING TYPE!

You have an R1, Vulva, Civic, truck, and a 4Runner, and the gas on your commute was killing you so bad, that you decided you needed another car?

How long do the batteries last in those, and how much are they to replace?

they are supposed to last quite a while, but they also have a 10 yr 156k extended factory warantee on them, i think they are like 3k to replace, i just got mine replace for free due to a recall, i have 127k onmine, a friend of mine has 220k on his stikk runnin strong, they are both 2000 models, i actually have 2 volvos to be exact tho, i have 94 850 turbo and a 95 t5-r

isn't it cheaper to buy a junker and keep it running than to buy a new car? meh...

my crx gets ~40 on the highway, and im completely satisfied... a balance of savings and performance... btw, can your insight chirp 2nd? hehe... as a teenager, i can see someone owning a hybrid (prius, with like the drag coefficient of a fish, like .01 or something)... because gas around my house just hit $4/gal. but damn...



i could/would never drive one of those... even if gas was $20/gal... i like my manliness...

chirps second all day lon lol, i have even chirped 3rd once or twice, look man i used to do the same thing buy a crx, or hatch, even used to commute with an mr2, i loved it and saved a lot of money, but i kinda got tired of driving junk with no a/c all the time, the take it the wrong way, i'm not sayin you car is junk, i am ef fan all the way that and da integras, but i would always end up lowering those cars, put a swap in them etc. i just wanted something stock with exceptional gas mileage, a/c, and no maintenance, all i do is put gas in my insight and change the oil every 10k, thats all it really calls for besides airfilters and plugs at 100k, the only reason i bought my insight is because i got a great deal, otherwise i would be driving some civic or integra daily, i never saw myself owning one, but ater i drove one of myfriends home from work one day and saw the gas mileage and how it drove, i changed my mind, they actually handle quite well, abnd is just as quick aa a crx si, i raced a crx si, 91 civic si, and a del sol with a d16z6 in it, i beat the del sol, and was dead even with both the crx and civic. its not fast by any means but not as slow as everyone portrays them to be
