Digital dash FTW!
My motor goes round and round, not up and down.

that car is an electrical nightmare waiting to happen. nothing like the century. my dad used to have a riviera like that and it was never on the road for long.

I've always liked digital dashes. I wish my truck had one.

actually, gas mileage is pretty good on the 3800 series, especially for such a big engine. my dad used to pull off mid to high 20's around town and 30 on the highway with both his 90 Riviera and his 86 Olds Ninety-Eight 8) . the 3800 is a bulletproof engine. unfortunately, the 3800 went into most of the upscale GM models, most of which were known for their electrical problems :? .

I just realized. I have a bigger V6 than my moms Jeep Liberty does. Her's gets worse gas mileage though.
