The question is do I keep the 190D, the 240D and the Quantum or sell/trade the 240D and get a new pickup?

We test sat (the dealership was closed) a Chevy Colorado the other day. The one we sat in was a crew cab and would seat 6 if you were personable. I was surprised at the rear seat leg room. At least as good as a W123 sedan. Of course the bed is teeny which is the price you pay. I need to get the opportunity to sit in an extended cab... Those have jump seats which are really a cruel joke. I don't want the back seat to sit in though, its somewhere for the dog to ride... I dunno, a Quantum with a trailer hitch might keep us out of a pickup. -Curt --- On Mon, 7/14/08, Jim Cathey <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: From: Jim Cathey <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Re: [MBZ] Let the oil flow!

After a fresh tune-up I got 30-31 several times on long cross-state trips in the '60. Holley 1-barrel carb, 144cid. Twenty-something was more usual, but "about 20" meant that something was wrong with it. Seats six, comfortably. Friend of mine has a Nissan Axxess. Gets 30 mpg, and was in a minor wreck. As the car booked at about $700 according to ins., they wanted to total it. He looked around, and couldn't find any van that was as small or got anywhere near that kind of mileage. They were all baby SUV's, huge and heavy. So he ended up getting it fixed anyway, but less than perfectly. -- Jim _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com For new parts see official list sponsor: http://www.buymbparts.com/ For used parts email [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com -- LT Don http://don.homelinux.net/~don/ apt-get update apt-get upgrade The following packages will be replaced Prez Do you want to continue?
