I bought the last brand new copy of Alex Webb’s book Under a Grudging Sun when I was in college. In one of my early uses of internet research, I called Thames and Hudson and got the last copy from their warehouse.

![Months go by and we were mixing in New York because we’re not particularly fast about how we do things. We were just about finished with the mix of “Aja” at A&R with Elliot Scheiner. It’s as good as you can imagine something sounding on those speakers in the control room. It was magically great. Someone walked in and said, “Hey, you know Steve is down the hall, he’s playing with Michael Franks.” I said, “Oh, cool, Donald, I’ll go down and let him know we’re here.” I did that and he was finishing up. When he was done, he came in and said [his greetings].
He was feeling good. I said, “Sit down, I want to play you something.” We played him “Aja,” which was finished. He sat right between the Altec 604 Utility [speaker] cabinets. It was great sounding. The track ends and he said, “Wow, who is playing drums?” Donald, Walter and I, Roger Nichols and Elliot, are just looking at each other. Because he wasn’t kidding. I say, “You are, stupid!” He went, “Really? I’m a motherfucker!” It’s the best laugh we had in all of the years.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:bctdanqb7ps7lhkti5kvbexp/bafkreiey7cyql6ouuk4lvrmwknklfca35f2ywpybufyqeadda6dr2nwewe@jpeg)

The internal combustion engine (ICE) variant has an estimated fuel efficiency of 14.7 mpg‑US (16.0 L/100 km), decreasing to 8.6 mpg‑US (27 L/100 km) when the air conditioning is on.[91][2]: Table 3-1.2 For comparison, the earlier LLV (built 1987–94) and FFV (2000–01) have an average observed fuel consumption of 8.2 and 6.9 mpg‑US (29 and 34 L/100 km), respectively.[2]: Table G-1 The minuscule improvement in fuel economy was criticized by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in February 2022.[63]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:bctdanqb7ps7lhkti5kvbexp/bafkreih5tcfzygm27ycl3vlkqrygae4iaimh3n4tmfhm4xjxv4blc6xfxe@jpeg)
