Disagree all you want, but that doesn't change what's going on.

Only if you're worring about CAFE, and the EPA.  In the real world it aint
no big thing, feel free to review the archives.

Swing by some time, and in back to back tests I can show you the difference.

In all areas.
And no hearing about, guessing, or maybes.
