Mark,

While it is true that I can pull a 10 inch diameter tree stump in 1st
gear, the problem is I don't see that many tree stumps at stop
lights/signs.

It is also true that I got great diesel mileage, It is embarrasing when
a man in a wheelchair can pass me on the street, going uphill, into the
wind, and he is using only one arm going backwards!
