    Ah yes, the ol' appeal to authority fallacy.

    Amazing how a shuttle driver/ex-tech is able to manage efficiency and performance better than TEAMS of engineers who develop, test, and improve the systems of the vehicle.

    I think Occam's Razor can put this one to sleep, until there is sufficient data for a more meaningful answer.

    "For each accepted explanation of a phenomenon, there may be an extremely large, perhaps even incomprehensible, number of possible and more complex alternatives, because one can always burden failing explanations with ad hoc hypotheses to prevent them from being falsified; therefore, simpler theories are preferable to more complex ones because they are more testable."

    "Hey guys, this big bro at the gym told me that if I clench my anus while setting up for a deadlift ... it'll add 400lbs to my lift in 3mos."

    I run 93 in my 2nd gen. Noticeable difference in everyday driving here in hot south Florida. Don't have to press the pedal as hard to get it going. As far as gas mileage and wide open throttle, I don't see or feel much of a difference.

    Fucking shuttle driver. I remember when I had that Toyota care shit and had the shuttle take me home. One of the damn drivers was telling me how his daughter was a stripper at one of probably the raunchiest joints in the area. He's all showing me pics and telling me I should go and see her, and that he's there almost every night. What in the ever living fuck. Why the fuck would you even attend the place where your daughter strips at, let alone watch her, and watch dudes grab on her. Mind was fucking blown, and every damn time I did this Toyota care, it was the same shit. Do you not fucking remember me? We had this conversation last time. I don't want to see your skanky ass daughter rub her meat flaps on a herpes infested fucking pole. Fuuuuucccckkkkk.
