Re: Why no fuel effecient Jeep?
that's pretty well my point. The US and Canada have shitty fuel and,
because diesels are less popular, less advanced diesels. I don't like
the older diesels either.

What sort of mileage are you looking for? I had a four cylinder CJ-7 with a
four speed that got 23-24 MPG at 55 MPH. Of course, if I drove 65, I got
about 13 MPG. The new ones are probably at least as efficient as long as
you SLOW DOWN!

Why YUPP up a perfectly good thing? That is what the Liberty is for.
