Apparently I pissed a guy off this morning because I didn't push a yellow light. we were in the left turn lane and the light had already been yellow for 3-4 cars so I decided to stop. I guess he wanted me to go because he slammed his brakes right behind me then revved his engine (one of those new Hemi Jeeps). So I figured he'd hot dog it around me once the light turned green. And sure enough he did. Kinda almost hoped he'd get loose and fishtail into the curb or something. There was some traffic merging onto the right lane of the 4 lane road we just turned left onto and he almost hit them, then quickly swerved back into my lane in front of me and slammed on his brakes because there was a car about 30 feet in front of me going slower than the 60 he was doing (speed limit 40). Cool, you really showed me. I bet you're an awesome person. I was so happy when that car he got behind kept going 40 mph and there was a semi in the right lane trapping him in. Just relax, dude.

Got 29 MPG's in the Saturn! :woot: thats more than my new truck and old truck combined.

Hopefully I can squeeze some more out of it. Possibly a little tune up.

My buddy told me he gets 36MPG out of his Sentra. Said he did a couple things and messed with the duty cycle on the injectors. Got to see if I can poke some more info out of him

he is full of knowledge and he loves talkin about those things lol

while ur head is cocked to the side saying, what is that lol

Does anyone have the beer La Folie from New Belgium Brewery in their town? The only place I know of that it exists is in Ft. Collins, Colorado... The liquor stores here can't even get it and it is some reallly good stuff.

Some very nice TF'n by matt and jordan. Have not had a massive session like that in a while. Now, the ihop should be way out in front on longest single thread length.

Tmax, nice CAD drawing. Maybe once day if I have free time at the office I will try one too.

I found that caosting in N is much more effective than coasting in D, atleast in the case of my truck

2002 GMC 5.3l:

- DFCO (Deceleration Fuel Cut Off) is only useful if you can engine-brake for 30 seconds or more. It takes 6 to 10 seconds to get into DFCO but does hold it down to ~1100 rpm.

- Due to that DFCO issue, using N is far better than coasting in D at any time. Not only does coasting in D slow the vehicle down, but even with my foot off the gas the computer must inject more fuel at higher RPM to keep the air/fuel ratio correct.

- While stopped (at traffic lights and such), idling in N uses a very tiny bit more fuel than idling in D, but is worthwhile.

I think I'm going to repay off my car loan pretty soon. I only have about 2,000 left on it. I'd also like to repay one of my student loans, which also has about 2,000 on it. If I didn't repay these loans I'd be making 4 different payments on loans each month pretty soon. yuck. Luckily two of them are only 50/month.

Then I'm trying to decide on if I want to save up to pay off my big student loan or for the down payment on a house first. I think I can get one or the other in 2-3 years, maybe both in 5 (given I stay at the job I just got). After the discussion we had a few weeks ago on here about houses and all, it seems like buying a house sooner would be better since it would hopefully/probably appreciate in value. I guess at that point it would be figuring out which would be larger, the appreciation on the house or the interest rate on the loan. But who really knows at what rate the house will appreciate? Half of my student loan is at fixed 6.5% and the other half is variable, I think at around 7.5% right now. I figure the house would be better than that, but I just hate having debt. One big loan wouldn't scare me as much as the 4 smaller ones I'm about to have. I guess I'm weird like that.

Discussion over at FSC about the Coasting in N

One guy said its better to coast in D

I posted my findings disproving his theory

He tells me not to believe everything I read on the internet.

Then why should I believe you Fucktard!

Atleast what I posted had some kind of experimental basis and not just a statement

The wifey might have just found us a new euro shop.

With all these people now clear into 15k+ posts, might need to make a new user color.
