I have not been to a dealer yet but have done some research online. The V6 seemed appealing bu 1. We have an 03 Suburban for family hauling and such 2.
The size of the liberty works better for my wife since she is not comfortable driving and parking the Suburban in the City ( Washington D.C.)
It's a shame that we in the U.S. have not embraced and then pushed forward Diesel technology. Heck I have looked at more than a few used Diesel Suburbans
and am amazed that G.M. stopped offering them on the SUV's.
Anyway I have not driven one of the CRD Liberty"s since they are far and few between at the dealerships so we may change our plans. My wife works at the airport and is also a nurse downtown so even though I drive her in when the weather is extremely severe it would be nice to have another option. The Suburban just uses to much fuel to go into and out of the city twice in one day.
I was going to have her drive the 85 300SD but she is worried there will be a problem and she will get stuck and in her job's that just does not work.
