    saving gas

    I ran into a thread by a guy in the petro biz for 30 yrs, and he had some good advice I wanted to pass on. Can't say I'm ready to park the cobra no matter the price of super duper. But like everybody with a performance machine, I want as much bang for the buck as possible! Safe spirited...
