Average Jane Feels Some Alarm

Written by

Yesterday I received the insurance card for the Insight and it came with a sheet of amendments to my policy. This one caught my eye:

The following is added to When The Physical Damage Coverages Do Not Apply:

THERE IS NO COVERAGE FOR LOSS TO ANY VEHICLE THAT RESULTS FROM:

NUCLEAR RADIATION;
RADIATION OR RADIOACTIVE CONTAMINATION FROM ANY SOURCE; OR
THE ACCIDENTAL OR INTENTIONAL DETONATION OF, OR RELEASE OF RADIATION FROM, ANY NUCLEAR OR RADIOACTIVE DEVICE.

I hope my insurance company doesn’t know something that I don’t…

So no carrying around that nuclear device you’ve got sitting around in the garage, then 😉

Sorry to paste on your site but my ass is dragging. I was interested in your new (used) car so I went to the consumer guide website and it gave the following pros and cons. So do you agree or in other word how about some insight on your insight.

Pros:
Fuel economy, Automatic-transmission performance, Maneuverability
Cons:
Acceleration, Rear visibility, Road noise, Ride, Interior storage space

Regarding the Insight:
I agree on the pros, except that mine has manual transmission so I can’t comment on the automatic transmission statement.
As for the cons, yes, the acceleration is a bit weak compared to the sports cars I’ve been driving lately, but I’m learning to adjust. I don’t see that the road noise is that much of a problem (although better stereo speakers would improve the situation further). The rear visibility isn’t really that bad, except from the standpoint that it’s a really small car and sometimes it’s tough to see around big vehicles to pull out of a parking space. The interior storage space is really pretty good, especially when you consider the extra little “pirate hatch” in the back. I think my husband could get a set of electronic drums in there – that’s the biggest thing we’d usually carry.
