Whoa! That's awesome! I've never heard of a car holding up that well and being that efficient! But I bet that's not too common, even with the diesels....I know of a few Tempos around here (regular gasoline models) that are complete pieces and are falling apart. I'm sure it has a great deal to do with the owner/driver also, but still....
