It has been my experience that our MODERATors aren't very moderate either.
I knew one that traded his Murano in on a screaming hemi engined hearse!:2:

Any problems with the Magnum?

Hey Homer! I've been busy as heck, but enjoying the hybrid. (It burns both gas and rubber.)
No problems with the Magnum, and it's been a lot of fun. Out of curiousity one day, I went in to a big empty industrial parking lot next to an empty building to see if the little red station wagon could actually do a donut on dry pavement. No problem at all. I did one, then decided to stop as it was a heck of a lot of fun, but I like these tires...
This Saturday I met up with a bunch of other Magnum owners, and some of us put them on the dyno to see how they'd do... The others were a few HP either way of this. This is corrected, the raw reading was much higher. Of course, at the rear wheels.
It was interesting watching them take it up to the top of 5th gear, which read out at 170 MPH. And it didn't take long to get there. Helps with no wind resistance.
I still look at every Murano that goes by and smile...
Dealer service has been excellent, but the Mobil 1 Oil change sure is pricey!
