Theres very little I want to do that my Ranger won't accomplish (probably shouldn't haul cars with it but I've only done that once anyway). A small diesel with better economy would be fantastic. Available just about everywhere else in the world but not here...
I *think* the whole thing boils down to car execs being basically "average Americans" and not understanding why some of us don't want diesels. I'm sure they could sell us diesels if they decided it was worth doing. It seems like just about every F250-F350 is a diesel now, I see them all over the place... -Curt Date: Wed, 12 Aug 2009 15:16:47 -0500 From: "R A Bennell" <b...@mts.net> Subject: Re: [MBZ] 4Matic To: "Mercedes Discussion List" <mercedes@okiebenz.com> Message-ID: <nhbblomcoljnegblbjcpmeclniaa....@mts.net> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Me too! Don't really need a 3/4 ton. My F150 Supercrew seems able to tow what I tow and to haul what I haul (including people) but I would like a nice diesel. Not sure I want or need one of the 7 liter diesels or the rougher ride that would likely go along with the heavier duty truck. Don't like the price tags on them either.
