[QUOTE="Kevin Lang, post: 996216, member: 65699"] BTW I thought that salt made the wounds heal faster... Weird displacement, weird cylinder count (that reminds me of GMC) and diesel. None of which appeals to me as a normal American driver. I just don't understand the "Diesel cult" here in America. If it were cheaper, commonly available and I needed massive low-end torque at the expense of acceleration then sure, I'd see the appeal. I'm told that it "gets better MPG" as well but this comes from people who don't meticulously track their MPG so I'm dubious. Even if it does, I doubt it balances out with the higher cost of diesel in both money and time as I drive all over Creation trying to find a station with it (the closest ones to me each have only 1 pump for diesel to boot). I like the color of the truck in the picture but it looks rather small overall and the grey plastic parts in the bed remind me of the Avalanche. [/QUOTE]
