Dumb Cars

Smart old riders. Ball and chain policy. Barry O'Bama. Florida farrago. Plus more.
p> DON’T OUTSMART YOURSELF br> Re: Eric Peters’ Smart Shoppers : /p>

I had to laugh when I read the mileage of the supposedly Smart car.

We have a 1991 Honda Civic (hatchback) with five on the floor.

My son rebuilt the engine and tranny, replaced the suspension, exhaust and brakes. He hasn’t had a chance to do any body work on it as he’s in Iraq, but when he gets back…

p>Anyway, the other day I bought gasoline (regular) and calculated its mileage (I’m a little obsessive) and it got 38 mpg. I do mixed driving — local and highway — to get to work and home, with the occasional traffic br> jam. I drive on the expressway at 70 to 75 mph. /p>

Har! Our hoopty Civic gets better mileage, holds four people and some cargo, is safer and FAST.
