"Hurricane" is a 2001 Honda Insight manual 5-speed, very pretty electron-blue. I bought her from a guy in East Texas and they'd just had to deal with hurricanes Rita and Katrina. She now has
172,000 miles on her, with a lifetime mpg average of 68.8.
She lives in the mountains, and, like my other car, the 1984 Sentra SE, has to cross a creek whenever I go out. She's done this without complaint for 4 years. Drop-jaw amazing little car. Honda needs to make more of them. Makes it up the winding mountain roads just fine, even with 200 lbs of chicken feed in the back and my 300 lb. 6ft 4 in stepson in the passenger seat.

You are SO right about jaw-dropping! Absolutely phenomenal cars :) I live up in Canada and she's plowed through every blizzard, snow storm, bizarre weather and ridiculously cold temperatures.

Thanks for checking out my Sentra, Clare. That's a pretty Honda you got there. So economical and very unique too. I haven't seen one like that before. Do take good care of those "tough" rides you got. Efficient cars that really serve their purpose well. Check out my little wagon that's 12 years older than your Sentra if you got time. Thanks again. Cheers!!!
