I need to get another car.. because this car is killing me.. 12-13mpg.. NA with safc and no cats. I don't drive any harder. The only thing I can think of it's really cold and because the air is more dense it uses more gas..

I think I once read that if your NA was getting below 15mpg you have problems.. and that I should be getting 17. I don't know.

No way should it be doing that badly. You should be doing 20mpg or better, even with all the warm up time. I still get around 20mpg in the Cheeto every week.

Second... so Cody... your uncle bought Josh's other car out from under you... the silver one? And now you're trying to buy the one he's already in line to buy? I can't take any more plot twists.
Yes i said i would hold the car. When no contact is made or even attempted I loose faith in said "buyer" the same one who called in sick with a "hang over" and get's FIRED. NO INCOME = NO CAR.
POINT.
... plus.. my dog dislikes him, thats enough for me.

Welp, he's had a new job so hopefully he'll make some effort to contact you since he knows you're selling the car again.

I don't know man.. I just know if I'm lucky I might get close to 14mpg. Maybe someone can help me find out what could be wrong with it.

I'd like to buy the yard gnome but as it probably doesn't run I couldn't get it up here.

Hey Hellbent... Josh said if you'll take another 100 he'll get that car off your lawn this week. Or something like that. I told him to call you.

I'm just using you to get to your car Jonathan, you know this. And NeatoCheeto is using me to use you to get to your car. That's how we roll.

I heard he was getting a Miata as well... I dunno. I need to stay out of this one

He told me he doesn't have your number... I'm guessing he lost it because I remember you giving it to him. Give it to me and I'll pass it along and maybe he'll call you so I can quit being the goddamn middleman in this! Raaah! Okay I'm done.

Mazda knew this and for the legendary 1991 LeMans Winning 787B Quad-Rotary race car it
benefited from it's bulletproof ceramic Apex seals, proceeded to shame Porsche, Ferrari and
friends and then the FIA banned rotary engines from competition at the end of 1991.
