Mitch, CRS struck again. What parts of the car were totalled?
I'll send you a list, off list and you may send me a quote for what I need.

Fred, don't forget I've got a totaled 190DT sitting in the pasture.
Berryman got the wiper, and valdals got the badges, but it's otherwise complete.

True, but empirical evidence collected by drivers does not change.
The old epa system over-rated mileage of gassers. For diesels, it was
pretty accurate.
the prius is currently over-rated in many ways, not just mileage.
A well tuned diesel whether 40 years old, or 25 or less will get better
mileage than gassers, and when driven by some drivers can exceed the epa
estimates.
