I think that this is achievable! OH and somehow prevent it from rusting! But maybe that is not realistic here in Chicago! later, dave AKA vwdoc1 _____ From: WJ-Grand-at-yahoogroups.com [mailto:WJ-Grand-at-yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of john Sent: Monday, May 23, 2011 11:12 PM there's a number of Diesel KJ - Liberty's on ebay... 2.8 CRD... is that the VM Motori Diesel? the prices are realistic... what kind of mileage do they get? any issues? the seats aren't very good, but that isn't hard to fix... :) they're ugly, heavy, don't handle well, have limited storage in the back, but hey, it's a Diesel.... and a Jeep...
