Comparison Table -- Two "Viceroy" Autavias


The Autavias seem to be "hot" lately, particularly the "Viceroys". In response to a couple of questions, and to test a new format, here is a table that compares two of the "Viceroy" Autavias. We will be incorporating some of these comparison Tables into OnTheDash, and this is a "sneak preview" for Discussion Forum readers.

Thanks to Chuck for the design / HTML, and to Jim and Walter for suggesting the usefulness of these types of tables.
