But how in the world did a lass from Briton know about a Buick????
Could there possibly be some insider help??? ha.

This
week's puzzler:
I was on a holiday recently and my car was in
need of petrol.
I was on a secondary road, and I turned into a
self-service gas station. I pulled up to one of the minipumps, and
absentmindedly reached for the nozzle.
I was just about to fill up
my tank, when I happened to notice that the gasoline was a little
expensive.
In fact, it was $4.59 a gallon. I said, "Whoa. What
kind of vehicle uses this stuff?"
I looked around. There was a
vehicle on the lift and I knew immediately why this gasoline was $4.59 a
gallon.
Here's the question: What did I see?
Last
week's puzzler:
In 1936 an American car company introduced a
car that could go 100 miles an hour. Now it certainly wasn't the first
vehicle that could go 100 miles an hour, but it may have been this
company's first vehicle that could go 100 miles an hour. The question is
what is the name of that car, and the hint is you can still buy the same
make and model today. I mean not the 1936 version, you can buy the updated
version of that very car that was made in 1936.
The answer is, the
Buick Century. It could go 100 miles an hour, hence the Century name, and
it was a Buick, hence the Buick name.
