You are looking at a 2000 Honda Insight Hybrid in excellent mechanical
condition. I purchased this vehicle in August of 2012 with 145,000
miles. The original owner drove it until 2011 and kept all maintenance
records since it was brand new. I purchased this vehicle from my dad
who typically owns two or three of these at a time; he was the second
owner. He had a new clutch put in during the short time that he owned
it. Throughout the two years that I've owned it, the only repair I've
had done is a brand new radiator, which was installed about six months
ago. I have also kept all maintenance records since I started driving
it.
I have absolutely no complaints about this vehicle. I did not intend to keep it as long as I did. But it was hard to get rid of a vehicle that gets 50 to 65 MPG. The worst city mileage I've gotten is 45. That was because I was using studded winter tires at the time. The best highway mileage I've gotten is 73 while using low rolling resistance tires. The mileage shown next to the odometer (53.3), is the lifetime mileage since the vehicle was brand new. Another unique thing about this car is its aluminum body panels. Overall, the vehicle is in good condition inside and out. The exterior shows typical wear for a vehicle of its age. The only major cosmetic issue is the weather stripping on the driver's side door. This only seems to be happening on the driver's side; the passenger side shows no evidence of wear at all. There are no rips or tears in the fabric. The interior dash and door panels are in great shape as well. Now that I am living in Alaska, I have decided to upgrade to a 4-wheel drive vehicle. I've considered keeping this as a summer vehicle, but I would prefer not to pay for insurance and maintenance on two vehicles. If you do not know much about these cars or hybrids in general, I would encourage you to do a bit of research. A good resource to check out is insightcentral.net. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions. 907-491-1557. Due to the fact that I do not have any transactions in my feedback history, I will not require a deposit. Thanks for looking. On Aug-28-14 at 12:42:53 PDT, seller added the following information: There are a few other things I would like to mention: -The hybrid battery is performing perfectly. I have never had any issues with the battery charging or holding its charge. And it always seems to provide enough additional horsepower to get around with ease. The only person I wouldn't recommend this vehicle to is someone who is continuously driving through the mountains. It tends to struggle going up steep hills but downshifting has always helped here. I've also noticed that the fuel economy is not as great while driving through mountains. -All four tires were installed 9,000 miles ago. ***If you win the auction and decide you do not want the vehicle after seeing it in person and driving it, I will NOT require you to go through with the purchase. No negative feedback will be left. I will either relist it or offer it to the next highest bidder.*** |

Honda Ridgeline sorta takes class victory on Baja race debut
Tue, Nov 24 2015The Ridgeline Baja Race Truck was unveiled at SEMA earlier this month to serve not only as Honda's new off-road racing platform, but also as a preview for the upcoming second-generation pickup. Technically, it scored a class victory on its race debut in the SCORE Baja 1000. To be fair, it was also the only vehicle in that class. Though clearly a purpose-built racer, not a modified from showroom stock truck, the Baja truck features bodywork patterned after the forthcoming production model – especially at the front end. It also uses the same block, cylinder heads, and crankshaft as the 3.5-liter V6 that powers the current Ridgeline and will power the upcoming one. In race trim, it's been twin-turbocharged up to 550 horsepower. Honda Performance Development and Proctor Racing Group entered the custom-built Ridgeline in Class 2 (for forced-induction engines up to 3.6 liters) at the Baja 1000 this past weekend. Driving duties were shared by Honda spokesman Sage Marie and experienced off-road racers Jeff Proctor and Jason LaFortune. They completed the 821-mile loop to and from Ensenada, Mexico, in 25 hours, 9 minutes, and 47 seconds. That's about ten hours behind the Ford F-150 trophy truck and the Honda CRF450X that won outright, but that's beside the point. It's impressive enough that the truck finished on its debut in such a grueling race under such punishing conditions, even if it didn't have any competition. Honda Ridgeline Baja Race Truck Conquers Baja 1000 Nov 22, 2015 - ENSENADA, Mexico - Off-road racing truck debuts with Class 2 victory - Completes desert endurance event in first attempt - Racing machine previews second-generation Honda Ridgeline Developed by Honda as a preview to the introduction of the new, second-generation Honda Ridgeline, the driving trio of Jeff Proctor, Sage Marie and Jason LaFortune piloted their Ridgeline Baja Race Truck to the Class 2 victory in this weekend's 48th running of the SCORE Baja 1000. Built jointly by Honda Performance Development, the North American motorsports arm of American Honda, and the Proctor Racing Group, the tube-frame Unlimited Class 2 off-road Ridgeline Baja Race Truck made its competition debut at the brutal Baja event, which this year consisted of an 821-mile loop that started and finished in Ensenada, Mexico.
Junkyard Gem: 2001 Acura MDX
Tue, Dec 6 2022The point of the Junkyard Gems series is to share automotive history, and the period of the middle 1990s through early 2000s is a very interesting one for U.S.-market new vehicles. The SUV revolution went into high gear with the introduction of the 1991 Ford Explorer and 1993 Jeep Grand Cherokee, and sales of sedans, hatchbacks, and minivans began their steady decline. The Detroit companies were in good shape to cash in on the commuter-truck craze, with plenty of additional models ready for a quick slathering of luxury features. Toyota, Mitsubishi, Nissan, and Isuzu were ready as well … but Honda was completely unprepared for the Next Big Thing at that point. With American sales absolutely critical to Honda (which has never held much market share for four-wheeled vehicles in its home country), a deal was made to rebadge the Isuzu Trooper as the Acura SLX and the Isuzu Rodeo as the Honda Passport while an all-Honda big SUV could be developed. That SUV was the Acura MDX, which debuted for the 2001 model year. Here's one of those first-year MDXs, a huge turning point in Honda history, found in a Denver-area self-service boneyard recently. Oh, sure, Honda began selling the CR-V over here in 1997 and so wasn't completely out of the SUV game during the 1990s, but that little Civic-based machine was never going to lure away many Explorer or even Montero shoppers. The MDX was a proper three-row crossover SUV, despite being based on the same platform as the not-so-imposing Accord, and a Honda-badged version (the Pilot) followed two years later. Here's that third row, which looks quite cramped, but so what? MDX sales started out respectable and stayed that way. Every 2001-2013 MDX ever sold here came with a VTEC-equipped V6, automatic transmission, and all-wheel-drive (some later MDXs could be bought with front-wheel-drive). This engine is a 3.5-liter DOHC plant rated at 240 horsepower and 245 pound-feet, decent enough for a truck that tipped the scales at well beyond two tons. The MSRP on this truck was $34,370, which amounts to around $58,260 in inflation-adjusted 2022 dollars. The base '01 Ford Explorer started at just $25,210, but the swankified Eddie Bauer Edition was better-suited to the Acura-shopper demographic and listed at $32,025. You could buy a new Montero XLS and do some serious off-roading for $31,397 that year, but it had warlord-grade ride to go with its warlord-grade abilities in the bundoks.
