Default Bad fuel economy? or are you guys playin!!
Remember, when they do the testing for fuel economy they NEVER punch it from the light to race past that acura or neon...
The 'CITY' test is probably done at very slow acceleration and at speeds that never go above 45mph.

OT: ...for those who don't read (or watch) the news, Saddam was captured in a farm house south of Tikrit saturday evening.

Because, hopefully, we can squeeze some intelligence out of him that will save blood-shed in the future...

I know what you mean though.

I WAS just kidding. I agree. I think "truth serum" shouldn't be ruled out - where did he hide money - the money he stole from his people needs to be gotten to rebuild the country.
THEN lock him up in a cell with Bubba.
