  Just drove mine to the coast this weekend.  We weren't 
over 10 miles from home when Dad made the comment 
"get a set of chips for this and I'll BUY it!"  He was in 
the passenger seat even.  It's not ALL that bad but 
loaded (which is what a wagon's for isn't it?) it's not 
going to set any time records and passing has to be 
planned out at LEAST as well as with my Rabbit NA.
