I'm getting pretty good at picking up speed on the downgrade and
letting it
bleed off on the upgrade. Works pretty well, lets me stay in
overdrive, and
saves gas.

I just miss the manual tranny.
With all due respect, what you are missing is a vehicle designed
to tow something.

You don't want to be in overdrive while towing. An automatic,
designed for towing applications, will figure it out for you.

I have the same car. I tow in 4th, not in OD, and when necessary,
I downshift to third or lower. Much easier on the transmission.
You and John co-own the same car? No wonder youse guys are at each
others throat all the time.
Jim, I'm not at Krause's throat. I think I've address a comment to
him once
in the past month.
I was joking John.


I know! :)
Almost anyone could see that I think a lot of Harry. And I know he
thinks a
lot of me, 'cause he's talking to me all the time. He's a special guy.

Touching.




I'm enjoying Herring's little chuckie dots...I know he's just this side
of a stroke, what with just about everything in his political world
going the way opposite of what he wants.

What could be sweeter than Herring choking on a box of chuckie dots.
