    That's true for the stock VX, but a supercharged VX has much longer legs, with almost all of the improvement above 4000 rpms. Plenty of reason to run in Power Mode if you have an S/C!

    That said, I haven't noticed much of a difference between how it performs on premium vs. regular. I'll try switching back and forth a couple of times this winter...

    Yup... December 17th... might cut it by 1 1/2 -2 1/2 million barrels a day... suposed to up oil to $65-$75 a barrel... I don't think it will... I think we're headed to $30 a barrel till early spring then it will start going up... we shall see...

    We sit together, my VX and I, until only the VX remains.

    Me neither - I think the slump in the global economy will do more to reduce prices than cutting the supply. If OPEC tries to push the prices up, demand will drop even more...
