Model F (1901–1903): The Packard Model F was the last single-cylinder car made by the Packard Motor Company. It had some major advances, including a new 3-speed transmission. When it competed in an economy contest, the Model F averaged 27.5 mpg‑US (8.6 L/100 km; 33.0 mpg‑imp) mpg.[1] It was the most expensive Packard till then, costing $2,500 in 1902(the price was lowered to $2,300 in 1903[1]). It was replaced by the Model G.

gollark: And `ret` as `pop` then `ADD something whatever bees` to update the program counter.
gollark: It sounds like `call` could basically just be done as `push` with the assembler filling in the right location.
gollark: What, nothing else?
gollark: Do call/ret just do push/pop but store register state on the stack?
gollark: It seems like I could probably get away with just having the stack as a table of ints stored along with the main execution state (which is currently just memory) and having push/pop.
