If you can get a 115 300D with the extra cylinder, you'll get 12% more omph over a 240D if the engine isn't too tired. Just imagine the stir the 5 cylinder engine caused in the 1970's. If you are careful not to pull out in front of someone, it's fine.
That being said, in Tehachapi with the hills and such, maybe you should look for a 280 gasser.
