understanding is that the cost per mile works out to equivalent of about
$2.50/gallon. If you have a source available...

The White Whale, aka '87 300TD, needs a new starter. Tonight I finally had
time to swap known good battery in, same result: big click, lights dim
considerably, system voltage drops to about 8.5v. Must be a locked/shorted

Yesterday Jill called me in the night and the car was acting up.
Lights on the dash, no power, died at stops, etc. Badness. She was
able to limp home, but didn't even make it into the garage, it stalled
in the driveway. Jill had bought this car so as to have a 'newer,
trouble-free' experience,

Remember back in the bad old days under another administration, when fuel
