Change is in the wind
Hey Guys,
You may get your wish about less lightnings on the market. I saw on the new today that Bush was going to have new guide lines for gas mileage on SUV, Vans and small trucks within 6 months.
Remember 1974, we are going to get a taste of it again and it will limit some of these new high HP wheels that we now drive, hang on to your trucks, they may go up in value yet!

Awww, no, say it isn't so. Wasn't it Gore who was going to take our trucks away? Or was that our guns, I forget.
