Don't believe Corvette owners lies about supposed fuel economy
It's an '86 in very good condition so I do not beat on it. It is a Corvette
though and needs a little "push" once in a while as a reminder My wife doesn't drive it--she complains about the cabin size,rough ride etc... Fine with me! At least she hasn't asked for the garage back Sarah thanks for the link--i'm going to look at it now Joevette "John Smith" > wrote in message ... > How BIG is you right foot?

Don't believe Corvette owners lies about supposed fuel economy
During the 3 years I've had the C6 it has gone 9000 miles while the Olds has
only gone 2000 miles. My wife doesn't drive anymore, so it looks pretty obvious which one I LOVE to drive! -- Ron Stewart Santa Rosa, Calif.
