SOunds like a great idea, but I hear there only offer 2 per dealer tin 05. It slipped to an 06 mass production product. Only problem is around here diesel is 2.17/gal where gas is $1.60/gal.

Crosslander might be another good option if they ever get there diesel approved. http://www.crosslander4x4.com/

gws,
That's an awful price for diesel.
Several years ago, I had a Ford Escort diesel. And, I was mad when the price of diesel here got to about $.90. /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif I kept the car until the price was around $1.04 a gallon. /forums/images/graemlins/mad.gif
I remember once getting mad at the mechanic who changed my fuel filter and Racor water separator. He just dumped out the fuel! I told him that with those two quarrts of fuel, I could run most of the week. /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif

hobby; Not a bad idea, but they tout "best in class" power and don't bother to tell you the specs! 100 HP and 250 torque? I guess for an SUV that might be acceptable?LOL /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif
