Thought I would share a neat postcard I bought off fleabay. Glad my CRV gets more than 10K on a set of tires!

Fairly economical car for its size. That is if you don't count oil and tires. Thanks for posting this.

Today's tires probably wouldn't last much longer on 1922 roads. The gas mileage is astounding for a car this big. I don't know that much about early oil consumption, but today, I solve that problem by using thicker oil. My 454 Suburban would throw a quart of 10W30 every 1000 miles, but when fed 50 weight, it didn't burn a pint between 10,000 mile changes.
