Cool Surprise in Motor Trend magazine.

I'm passin' time in the lounge of a local stealership waiting for my GF's appliance mobile ('04 Alero) to get its annual VA inspection. I used to follow car mags sorta' closely a decade or so ago, but got bored since even "cheap" SUVs will smoke an SVX. Anyway, I'm thumbing through an October Motor Trend mag, & while scanning through the Letters to Editors page called "Your Say", I spy a recognizable name. A certain retired train driver (engineer) from Delaware, who we know as Larry III. Yup, his comments on fuel management systems made it big time. And to think I knew him when he was a little known multi-SVX owner.
Now he's a published author! I'm humbled.
