My young eyes need heavy correction if I want to see anything more than 16 inches from my face.
PRK or lasik is worth it! Its been almost 10 years and I've still got 20/20.

I would compare that with what your Grand Cherokee got and that might make him smile a little.

On a related note, mid 20s is what the Mustang got on the highway. Replaced that with the Honda and now my wife is getting 40ish in her commute to work. :like:
I was getting 40 with a 1991 Ford Escort Pony, does that count?

Precisely what I did. He didn't smile though. GC got 18 mpg once with a tailwind downhill. But here in the city? 12, if I was lucky.

Gabrielle chugs along at 15-16, even with my lead foot. :like::rock:

I'm ok for distance. Gotta have specs for puter or reading. They nailed the perfect distance vision with the cataract surgery.

I guess improvements aren't good enough for him... Honda Clarity or you're personally responsible for the destruction of the Earth.

we all find it mildly entertaining on Sundays if its my dad's turn for scripture reading... He's recently had cataract surgery himself so he doesn't need glasses for normal functions like he has his whole life. He'll get up front, then remember to put on his reading glasses and then has to find the right distance to hold the bible before he can actually read it... meanwhile my whole family is trying not to snicker too loud during this whole process.

No, he's trying to retire before 40 because he hates his job. He's on track too. Just lives a very simple lifestyle - no fancy Jeeps, toys, etc. All by choice; I'm actually proud of him for it.
