[SEL] OT PA trip & fuel costs

[bill at antique-engines.com]

We're actually seeing quite a few Rovers around here lately.
Jeeps are still by far the #1 4x4 in this area, no other is even close in
numbers.

Funny, Ford, GM, etc. seem to need to own chunks of all these non-US
companies, what are they trying to do, drag them down with them? ;-)

Thanks for the extra information!!
