Oh and when I first got the Insight I had a V6 mustang rev up at me at a light and take off... Yea bud, I'll get right on that race with my 70 hp... I know quite a few people on the Insight Central forums and most of them are great people with some crazy knowledge on hybrid tech. Me... I'm sure I'd get fried if I tried messing with any of that crap... Which is great because my IMA Battery is starting to fail... Time to pull out the rubber gloves. No way I'm paying honday 3500 bucks for a refurished battery...
You'd be surprised what some of the other people on here may drive as daily drivers. |
lol @ the mustang.
when we got the wifes Hybrid Camry had something similar happen, only thing is the Camry smoked his ass. 240 hp with 100% torque across the rpm band is a nice feature..
