It can't be coupe or small sedan. Can you think of anything else.

He wants to save a bit on fuel so a turbo four cylinder would be best.

He's going to end up in a ford focus, I know it!

Acura TSX Sport Wagon. not a lot of ballz or awd but should handle pretty good on the back roads. and it's a honda, so it should be pretty good on gas.

I'm thinking about grabbing some Rotella T6 5w-40, if I do this will be in the car for the Cold Tire Nguyener take all showdown. Do you think it will be ok? I usually use M1 HM 10w-30.

I'm sure it would be good in your Subaru.

I have less than 1000 miles on my Mobil 1 oil but it's mixed between e85 and pump gas now so I'll need to change it before the event too. Sort of a waste.
