The way I see it ...

You got a SuperCharged 3.8
I got a Fuel Injected 3.4

I'm at the Midway riding the Merry-Go-Round and having a whole lot of fun ... but, wish I was riding the RollerCoaster.
Your on the RollerCoaster having about s much fun as you can have enjoying the thrill ride.

The tickets for the Merry-Go-Round don't cost as much as they do for the RollerCoaster.

I'll be very happy to trade places with you! Even though I know it costs more to ride the Coaster. I can deal with that for the schitz and grinns!

Want to trade?
You can have my Monte ... I'll take yours!

 

Rick man... I'm always impressed with your analogies.

 

My trio computer is a bit off not by much I wish there was a way to callabrate it. I get about 19 with the around small town driving i do. I go on a road trip it jumps to the 28 mpg

 

A very nice looking Monte SS blew by me on the Interstate.
I was doing 80.
He left me in a cloud of dust.

All I could think about for the rest of the afternoon was getting that U-bend deleted and playing around with the Intake.
Once I got over it; I managed to calm myself down and be glad to have the V6 running as good as she is without looking at a little yellow engine light telling me there's a problem.
No problem.
I can't afford to do any Mods ... so, I ride in the tuned-up comfort of my Stock Monte Carlo.
That's good enough for me ... for now!

I figure I'm in the Mid -to- High 20's.
But, I don't drive it like I'm trying to save any gas.
I'm getting the motorcycle out of mothballs and will start getting High 30's and 40's, anyway!
