The "not in my back yard" syndrome is the problem there, not to mention restrictive regulations meant to save the world or something. Mike Hohnstein ----- Original Message ----- From: DAY8293A@...

I HAD A 4 SPEED CHEVY VEGA SET UP WITH A HIGHWAY SPEED (70 MPH) REAR END, AND WAS GETTING 30 MPG. MUCH MORE THAN WHEN I BOUGHT IT. WHEN PRESIDENT "JIMMAY" LOWERED THE SPEED LIMIT TO 55 MPH, I COULD NO LONGER MAKE IT UP HILLS IN FOURTH GEAR, AND HAD TO DOWN SHIFT TO THIRD,,, JUST LIKE THE BIG TRUCKS HAD TO DO,,, AND DOWN WENT MY FUEL MILEAGE !!! IT HELPS SOME VEHICLES TO GO SLOW, AND OTHERS CAN CRUISE AT HIGHER SPEEDS AND DO BETTER. I CAN GET 30 MPG IN MY CORVETTE AT 70 MPH. (I USED TO GET 36 MPG IN MY 93 VETTE) I THINK PEOPLE WILL SLOW DOWN TO SAVE GAS IF IT WORKS FOR THEIR VEHICLE,,, I KNOW I SLOW DOWN,,, WE DON'T NEED THE GOV'T ON OUR CASE ANYMORE. WHAT WE DO NEED IS TO LIFT THE NICKLE A GALLON FUEL TAX THAT "SLICK WILLY" PUT ON FUEL WHEN HE WAS IN OFFICE,,,, DAY, IN JAX FLA ,,,,83PT-40,,, [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Yahoo!
