Anyone know anything about it? Is this something we should run

out and buy as our new boat hauler?


It is a way to fight socialism, after all.


I've got a diesel on order. *It's made in Germany. *27 MPG!


Mercedes?


VW


When I took my '02 7.3L Superduty in on the last cruise control recall
I got to talking with the diesel service manager about the new diesel
and he told me that it was to be built in Brazil. It will be
interesting to see how it works out usually first year new products
have teething problems. I doubt I will be getting a new one anyway I've
only got about 48K on the one I have now and it pulls our 28' sailboat
and 24'TT just fine. Jim
