    mostly stock
    We just aren't high speed enough to turn wrenches on them. I had an old Mercedes 230TE turbo diesel in Germany and the starter went out. It took me three days to change it in the parking lot. Turns out you are supposed to pull the motor to change it. The engineers that designed it knew that of course, but I got it changed with good old fashioned American brute force and ignorance. Also a cutting torch. :D I love German cars.

    EDIT: I thought this was an interesting article and may be my next vacation. http://expeditionportal.com/fly-and-drive-iceland/

    hell a Toyota eco gets that kind of MPG's and you can pick one up in mint condition for 4K not only that but diesel is more expensive. Not to mention parts are more for the Euro trash.

    I have a 120 mile round trip that I do 2-3 times a week.

    My little POS Hyundai cost me $2K eigth years ago. It'll still pull about 32 mpg doing 85mph on the freeway driving it like I stole it.

    Driving it more mellow at 55mph it'll pull over 50 mpg.

    While all 102HP at the crank isn't that fun off the line having that 3rd pedal still makes it fun to take through the corners and while it can't pass like the Taco can it still passes just fine, you just have to pin it a little earlier than I do in the Taco.
