Great story about Kyle and his hybrid Honda Insight.

While many NFL players climb into Cadillac Escalades, refurbished muscle cars or other vehicles targeted by the government’s gas-hog program, Orton is proud of the 44 miles per gallon he gets from his Honda Insight.

He went with the Honda hybrid after trading in his Toyota Prius, also known for its fuel efficiency.

“I’ve been driving a hybrid for four years now and I love it,” Orton said. “Everybody has their choice, and it’s a personal choice for me. I think it’s easy for someone to do.”

I liked this guy before (I just thought he wasn’t up to being a starting QB–could I get some salt with my crow).

I like the example this guy sets.
