Re: Eco/power switch...WtF?

I'm still lost. The only power buttons on the center console are the radio, the A/C, the wiper blade, and the rear defroster. Am I close?

Re: Eco/power switch...WtF?

nofear, i take it you have an automatic? when its switched to ECO mode(or ECON?) it makes the transmission shift earlier, saving you gas ECOnomy. if its in POWER mode, it lets the rpms get up a little bit higher for quicker driving. its like an overdrive type thing...manual transmissions dont have that because we have 5th gear, and we can control the rpms through every gear however we see fit.

thats why you dont see it david

Re: Eco/power switch...WtF?

yeah maybe, but now he can tell all his friends what it does. he could be like "duuuudeeee" and theyd be like "whoooaaaaa...." and he would say "sweeeeeet" and then they would all go buy 2g dsms and then crankwalk their shit, then we have more crankwalk cases to take to chrysler/mitsubishi and maybe JUST maybe i might get a brand new motor....or something. maybe dinner passes. or oil coupons. or at least a mitsubishi pen. yeah...a mitsubishi pen. dance puppets dance!
