Thanks, guys for the advice.

Vince, you are right, we made a good decision and have a car that is just as good - actually better. Like I said previously I choose it over the 6 cylinders. In fact, I couldn't even believe it for myself when I test drove it. The minute I first got it out on the road I was sold. I remember back to the last time that Chevy put the 4 cylinder in the Camaro. It was the Iron Duke and it sucked, but my car is so fast and so nimble that its nothing like that. All I tell people who are uneducated is to drive the car and then speak.

And Cooper you are right, they are uneducated. Our type of engine is going to be the way of the future. Look at the engine that Chevy came out with yesterday for the Silverado.

I guess the engine is just not accepted yet. I just don't like having to defend and explain it - it is just way too good. Last night some guy that I met at a car show said to me "I guess the dealer was glad that you took it off of his hands" when he realized that I had a 4 cylinder. He was being nice but just seemed kind of stupid. I am usually pretty forward, but he took me off guard and I didn't want to create an incident.

Thanks again.
