It pays to know and understand how this works and keep a close watch on it. Towing 300 miles is alot cheaper than trying to find 4 or 5 hundredths!

Unfortunately there are a few models/platform that offered the same engine size but different HP ratings and you’re not sure when a car unfamiliar to you has busted the average and you can’t react before it’s too late. Afraid that’s what has happened to me when they announce the revised ratings next month. Oh well, at least it shouldn’t be too large a hit but I would have towed to Rockingham (300 miles) even though I wasn’t quite ready with the car if I had known.
