Well, exactly. That is what I said.  Running Rich = Incomplete combustion due to too much fuel / not enough air.

Wait. Dumping more fuel requires more oxygen, othereise all you get is an incomplete combuation. More power requires the correct fuel/air mix.

Done!!

Yesterday I was reading in Bloomberg news that, while the drop is not significant, the overall trend is down. Have we kept the rate of sales from before the recession, this year we should’ve selling about 20 million cars, and not 17.1 as expected. The analysts say that big part of the problem is the cost of cars. They…

but...but...”GM is building the best cars in the market”, or so I hear.

While none of the products sold here in the US are appealing, they appear to bo doing OK in the rest of the World. That goes to tell you that there is more to the World than the US of A.

The day I get an add in my car, based on my location, shopping habits or any of that BS. Is the last day I buy a new car.

This is pure comedy.

Really? you should tell that to the those social-democrat countries in Scandinavia.

Nissan did it way before. My friend had a 1992 Nissan Sentra “Limited”. The inly limited on that car was the limited equipment it had

Dude, what is your damn problem? Can you understand that many people think that the interior of the Bolt is cheap for a $40k car?
