Now all you need is to store some extra tires in a barn, somewhere.
The V-6 really is the engine to have with the standard transmission.

I disagree about the 6, in that it is gasoline.

The original chain-driver 4 cylinder “turbo”* diesel is an amazingly tough little engine. It’s the same Perkins diesel found in London Taxis, de-tuned even more. Basically bullet proof.

* it’s barely boosted.

Well, I have 4 mud tires and 4 snow tires.

(It’s the vehicle we leave at our mountain house. Lots of people seemed to figure out they are perfect for leaving up there. Diesel doesn’t go bad near as fast as gas.)
