              Kinda like running an exploder in low range (offroad capabilities notwithstanding). I believe redline in 5th is around 50mph.

                      Is that a Volvo?

                      When I was a kid, we had a C303 like below. It had a rear propeller too.

                      Brake harder. Go faster. No shit.

                          not a problem anymore, you can import diesels that are more than 25 years old, so more and more become available for import every year.

                          I will have a D90 some day preferably a 300 TDI

                            The guy that runs by in the orange Crocs was the one who was driving the Mog when it rolled. And then he ended up just buying it later on at MogFest.
