With either a self launcher or turbo if you have waited
until you were low to start the engine you have made
at least two bad mistakes.

Kind of like how Chevy used to call the lowest trim
level on their truck line
the 'Custom Deluxe' so it didn't sound like the bare
bones plain jane that it
was.
The 'Turbo' nickname gives a warm fuzzy to those who
didn't step all the way
up to a self-launcher.
The whole concept is ironic: You are already low,
and now you have to DIVE to
get your engine to start and hopefully get you home.
Sure wish I had a self-launcher (self-starter)!
