The ones they have around here are at least 5 liter, most are bigger. The one I drove for many years was 14 liter. Now every now and then you would find a quiet one. One of the quietest I ever heard was a Volvo 7 liter, that one was comparable to a gas engine - but only that one. -- Regards, Pete http://www.pete-theisen.com/ _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
