[Vwdiesel] Why gasss cars mpg sucks

[gary]

Ahhh-yesss,

Reminds me of late October 2000 cruisin' up and over the San Gabriel
mountains along I-15 from San Diego to Idaho in my '85 Quantum TD.

I was passing an easy 99% of all vehicles that trip. Maintained an easy
70-75mph while working the pedal to maintain EGR under 1250.

Thanks Mark!

Every time I think I'm over the Q, you remind me of it all over
again! ;)
