I run 395 to Pasco, then jump on I-182, then 82 to granger, then 223 and 22 into toppenish. Be there on monday as a matter of fact. Where is Colbert? If I've got lots of time one of these trips, we should sit down and have a coffee. Haven't tracked down Tee-Pee as of yet.

You guys might think I'm nuts, but the new "ultra low sulpher diesel" is harder on mileage numbers vs. the low sulpher diesel. The first jetta diesels that were getting 55mpg plus, dont seem to do it anymore. Anyone else heard of this?

Depends on whether or not you drug home some sort of ford or mercury! Heck, even a Lincoln.
