That was yesterday. Diesel prices have been dropping dramatically. I'm glad to see it!

This and a 5.0-liter Cummins V8 diesel will be used in Dodge Ram pickups as well. Chrysler was allegedly looking at the possibility of diesel Chargers or 300s for the US. The 4.2 liter Cummins V6 is said to have 190 hp and 420 lb-ft of torque. Gas mileage with this engine in the Grand Cherokee is likely to be about 20 city, 25 highway, far better than the 4.7 V8 (14/18), with similar acceleration. - --- In WJ-Grand-at-yahoogroups.com, "Richard Leek" wrote: http://www.allpar.com/mopar/Diesel.html ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 18 Nov 2008 07:39:38 -0800 (PST) From: john Subject: [db] the '80 300GD I looked at an '80 300GD last spring... the guy still has it and dropped the price... http://wagoneers.com/DieselBenz/CARS/80-300GD/ALL.html still too much money, but was wondering if I could put a turbo Diesel and AT into this, or at least swap out the 4spd for a 5spd... a 3.0L TD would help this thing a lot, it's not fast, but was comfortable to drive. john ----- - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Snohomish, Washington -o|||||o- where Jeeps don't rust, they mold http://wagoneers.com/fotos/fotomeister/ SAVE power, use LINUX: http://johnmeister.com/tmcp.pdf SAVE yourself: http://freegift.com SAVE fuel, use synthetics: http://AMSOIL.com/redirect.cgi?zo=283461 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------ End of diesel-benz-digest V1 #2905 **********************************
