Okay, guys. I dislike jargon and acronyms in general.
"EPS"? First I checked Wiki, (which lead me to "earnings per share".) I fully understand what that means. Then I checked the Ecomodder glossary for EPS, but it turned up nothing under "E".
I can guess at what it might mean. But guesswork can be inaccurate as well as annoying.
Maybe I'm not the only one here who dislikes newspeak. So please provide a definition that can be added to the glossary.
So - after having read other posts, is it Electric Power Steering?
If so, please tell us when this innovation first hit the car market. Then tell us why it is
better.
Then predict how long it might last - without failure.
