My Caddie gets decent mileage out on the Highway, which is were I spend most of my time, about 21 miles per gallon. In town it is another story...uggg! 13 miles to a gallon. If I didn't have a large family to transport around when the visit, I would get rid of it in a heartbeat!

Ouch! I've been sending out letters of protest, not that I think it will do any good *sigh*. The people we are complaining to can afford those gas guzzlers. At least I've taken my frustrations out on the keyboard today ;) > > Chat with you later, > Alan > -- > Chandler, Arizona Sunset Zone: 13 > http://www.GardenersCorner.com > ----- > Alan Zelhart > gizmoaz@cox.net > Gardens Co-listowner > http://www.gardenerscorner.com/notes.html > ----- > 5 days a week my body is a temple.
