no 50mpg, Suit filed;won!

Did you see the Yahoo story where a former lawyer in CA. won her suit
against Honda because it was claimed that her 2006 Civic Hybred.
WOULD!!! get 50mpg, and she never did??

She is to receive nearly 10,000.$$$$$

I was shocked that she could win.

No offense to you that live in CA., but we all know your cars are the most smog muzzled, and in full honesty; most regular CA civilians drive in a stand on it method nearly always.

Stop signs, and lights are commonly left w near to the floor "gassing it up
style"!!!

Several years ago, I tried to follow my Uncle down some residential streets.
I was in a high powered car, he in a plain average sedan, and he nearly lost me!

Former CA residents who move to the Portland-Vancouver area usually
are shocked to see how laid back, polite ( only in comparison), and green
conscience the mainstream actually is around here.


So; in no way am I surprised that she couldn't achieve 50mpg. !!!

Must have been another liberal judge! I actually feel bad for Honda on this!!!

It just smells bad!
