Coming home this evening, I noticed that regular gas jumped 4 cents from
$3.059 to $3.099 and that diesel jumped 14 cents from $3.409 to $3.549.
With that, I'd be better off driving a gas car that got better than 20 mpg
than our diesel.

steel wheels. I may order new Blizzaks and go that route. Tire rack
has cheapo alloys for $80 each. That is probably second best. Only

The paper manuals have the best image quality, at least for the older cars.
But the older CDs are very reasonable (like $20) from
