I suggested a Cherokee with a Turbo Diesel... but a mid '80's 300CD would be nice... rofl... or maybe that MGB GT... oh wait, maybe that '68 Mustang... (yeah, like I could afford THAT!!!). I need SuperDawg back, hopefully he'll get 16 to 17 in town with that 4.0L and my wife will have "her" Jeep back and all will be well... I'm stuck driving the '87 Cherokee to work tomorrow, wife needs "her" Jeep for an appointment... grumble... :) I really don't want to drive a pile of junk to work anymore... I ain't go no vices (except'n for coffee and Jeeps), so why can't I spend the bucks to drive a nice Jeep to and from? ;) I've suggested that we drop cable TV, she can quit using the hair dryer, she can turn the heater off, I mean after all she can wear a coat... ;) She's not willing to make any sacrifices... :) What is it with fuel prices anyway? up and down, up and up... oh well... I don't forsee another vehicle... I'm not going down the Benz route again... not unless I can find a nice light creme '85 or '86 300CD with low miles... :) for real cheap... john - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- http://www.WAGONEERS.com/ Snohomish, WA - where Jeeps don't rust, they mold... jesus, don't leave life without him, please! - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------ End of diesel-benz-digest V1 #627 *********************************
