HINT -- if you click the 'Go Advanced' button and then select COURIER NEW font, you will get TEXT of constant width, which makes columnar-alignment MUCH easier to enter, align and read.

Example:

• proportional VERDANA(2) text...more...and more.

• constant COURIER NEW(2) text...more...and more.

i tried playing with courier, but i still couldnt make it right if i looked at the page with my phone. so i just cut out some of the fluff and broke up the lines.

im open to any additional formatting ideas

[gone-ot]

Did you use the "preview" function in the message Editor?

[2000mc]

Yea, using courier made it look crazier if I wasn't looking at the preview. After I thought I fixed it( using a desktop) it was better but still a mess (if I viewed it on my phone) and I figure people view the site with various devices, browsers, and display settings. So then I changed it again, so that I can read it decent with either device

Nice thread, interesting that the same models are ranked differently depending on size, cant really say that one model is more efficient than another but you could say one is safer than another, now isnt safety first, especially on slippery roads.
