In the case of the Saturn, one of the displays yields an accurate
reading but the others don't compute. My guess is that the computer
software went hooky falooky. My first response might be to reload
the
software and then replace the speedo control module if that didn't
solve
the problem.

-----------------------------------------

My response is to say the hell with it and go for having the only
Saturn
on the planet with over a million miles, kilometers or whatever the
heck
it is reading on it.


Could be worse. The car could be from Uranus instead of Saturn.

-----------------------------

Even worse, we could still be living in Jupiter.



Drove though it, never spent a moment there beyond that. My mom stayed
with a friend in Jupiter when she moved from New Haven while her condo
in the Palm Beach area was being repainted.

----------------------------------------------

Like most of Florida, Jupiter is over-developed with condos along
the immediate coast line. Had a number of fun and interesting bars
and restaurants though, especially along the ICW. Our place was
about 6-8 miles inland in a gated community, pretty much isolated from
the rest of the world. The community was developed on 1000 acres in
the middle of nowhere and had four major sections, dedicated to
specific interests. One had a couple of golf courses, another had a
full blown working runway for aviation enthusiasts and two were
dedicated to equestrian activities. Of the two equestrian sections,
one had lots that averaged 20 acres each and the other (the section
we were in) had lots that were typically 5-7 acres.

I enjoyed spending the winters there. The weather was absolutely
spectacular with low humidity and temperatures typically in the
mid-70's in the middle of February. But I don't think I could have
handled summers. Too humid.
