24. aleromn - aleromn 65.77%
25. White Whale (92 Accord Wagon) - Geonerd

We should probably look through these to see whose looks realistic, and how they're getting it done. Looking at the 2003 Cavalier - phleas, the only novel idea I see for a modification is this:

Removed passenger windshield wiper.
Switch to keep drivers windshield wiper in vertical position

A decent idea for dealing with the wiper issue, though my truck's cracked windshield probably already draws enough attention...

The weird thing, though, is that user "phleas" has never posted. There's lots of entries in his gaslog, and he has comments in many of them.

Drat, I thought that problem had been fixed...

[GasSavers_roadrunner]

I have been waiting for months for it to be fixed....guess what?

wow, I'm #2 on that list!
I guess I'm doing OK after all.
If you want ideas, check my mods list and gas log. I'm pretty sure it's all there. Just don't ask me to reprogram other ecu's, I'm just a hobbyist.

Some day we shall see a 1998 GMC Sierra K1500 on this list... (I hope)

[ucantcme]

I hope to one day be mentioned in a list like that...But I doubt it

[Jay2TheRescue]

I figure since my EPA combined rating is 13, that all I have to do is get my 90 day average over 21 and I'll be in the top 25. That will be real easy if I take that roadtrip to Florida like I was planning.

Thanks for posting that . It would be nice if the owners of the scooters and motorcycles would classify thier vehicles properly so they would be in the right list .
