The turbo engines do indeed stand out when you're at a significant altitide.While driving my '82 cd home from LA I fondly remember passing everything in sight on uphill grades between Albuquerque and Santa Fe.

are clear winners for long trips.

That's true, especially for us Pacific Northwesterners traveling mountain passes. The NA 300CD did well taking most passes hovering around 60MPH floored and loaded with four people and luggage though. I'm sure that the 300CDt's that you have can better that by 10MPH. It does make merging a LOT easier.
