We were talking about that. I think that is one thing that makes Yarisworld a tough beast to tame. We have so many ideologies here. He isn't the only CleanMPGer, but then we have some that are total gearhead HP freaks and others that are totally apathetic to the whole thing. Its remarkable they can even coexist, IMO.

Yeah, true. I just thought he acted a bit dramatic about it.

He could of just been like "Yeah, true. The contact patch is smaller, but I've never noticed a difference. And that's the risk I take for better MPG. And this is a fuel economy discussion."

Instead of " I'm telling daddy moderator!! "

And I'm sure he'd let you drive his Suby. The thing is just.. gah.. makes me want one. It is the best sounding car I've ever heard, for real.

Nice smile but the one in your avatar is nicer. Is the guy standing in front of you? He's got to be 5'3" or something!
