Actually if you want gas mileage, you need the 90 with the lockup torque converter. Torque converter? That must have something to do with an automatic transmission. Lockup? That must mean just a little more slip than a manual. Thanks for the quote tutorial.

Have you been on the 5 or the 10 recently. You know the speed limit is 85 in fast lane <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" /> Yeah, until one of those trucks decides it's time to pass. Seems like they do it right when there's a long convoy of 85+ mph'rs coming up on the left <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/evil.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/nana.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/evil.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/nana.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" /> Eric W.

There's a really nice Mercedes g500 around here, black on black, brush guards and cages all over... too bad it won't see anything more than a dusty road. Can't even call it a mall cruiser , no malls here.
