Hi all... just wanted a reason to post in this forum. My new car fits into this category engine-wise, so I'll probably be spending more time here than in 1992-1999 where I used to hang out.

No, but grrrrrrr I got a flat tire on my way into work today. That is my 5th flat in a matter of 2 months I think. Unbelievable! I must be buying magnetic tires that pull in every nail and screw that falls onto the road... sheesh.

Yep, had the dealer run it and fax me a copy before I bought. Nothing special on it... shows that my Aurora was bought new by a leasing firm in 1999, and leased for 3 years I think. Then (according to the reported mileage), it must have sat somewhere for awhile b/c barely any mileage was logged the next 2 years... seems kind of strange, but low miles is low miles. Then bought by a dealer, and traded to the smaller dealer who I bought from.
