<VV> Corvairs, rare indeed

[Joel McGregor]

His wife is probably like mine.  I can get 29-30 driving her CTS and she only gets 20.  It's a little like the light switches in the house.  On is no problem but off seems to be elusive.

You must be getting fantastic mileage.  I have a 2006 and a 2007 Vibe and
get 33 MPG on both.  My '64 Monza coupe gets about 25 MPG.

How many miles?
I just purchased my "latest" Greenbrier on New Year's Eve, and it had 88,148
miles on the odometer when we left the former owner's house. It now has
99,940 on it in nine short months, and it was down for about two weeks when
I did the clutch job in February, at which time I drove my "youngest"
vehicle, an '82 F150...
I drive the '62 Greenbrier to work every day, and even when the temps were
in the 100s for about 20 consecutive days here in KY this summer, it was not
uncomfortable...
I'd rather drive it than Cheryl's 2005 Pontiac Vibe... and I get better gas
mileage!
Later,
