Thats ok.. I never really thought of it in those terms really. Haha, I guess thats a frame of mind I'll have to get used to. I'm just so used to around 20 miles to the gallon that i never even thought of it like that.

...and thanks.. that link actually made me think about switching to a manual rack. I forgot how much lighter they are, and now I'm thinking if I eliminate the pump also, along with all the A/C components, that will be a substantial weight loss, on top of the hp gain.
