      yea, weight makes more of an issue in lots of stop and go, but once you're up to speed it doesn't require as much to keep a car rolling, plus the Insight being a hybrid can recover some of that energy that was initially used to get you going. I was also surprised though about how much the aero made. For me to get that low of MPG I got fat stickier tires, short geared transmission and lead foot.

    It doesn't look bad with those wheels! Looks kinda goofy without the back wheel panel but it's better than a Kia Soul sooooo it's a win!
