Default Don't Buy Cheap Gas

This is an interesting article about AAA's test of gasoline quality. At the bottom of the article are two links. One that leads you to the TOP Tier website with a list of retailers who sell Top Tier rated gasoline in all grades of their fuel. There is another link that takes you to a lengthily PDF document detailing the methodology use in the test and photographic results showing the difference in deposit build up on intake valves and combustion chambers.

And here is a link to the list of Top-Tier retailers -

Nice! First time I've seen that pic. Looks like a set of NHP style Buddy Bumpers

Mike (ImEvil1), I see that the number of spambots have decreased (when looking at who is online). Is that something new by the hosting site, or just a random occurrence?

Default And the Long Distance Award goes to...

The attached pic was taken this morning at the Charleston Cars & Coffee, which is a pretty neat trick since Debbie and I are still in Delaware. Our son, Jack Rab, rode back with us on Wednesday from Charleston, and yesterday he drove the SSP 620 miles back to his home (and our future home - we move next month!). That's one less thing we need to transport down to Charleston! And I'm really pleased that this 28yo car was up for the journey.

Yes, it's even better if the A/C and Cruise are working.
