It still has plenty of power to tow my trailers, and haul whatever I need to. One day I may get the chance to do a CDI engine swap into the T. That would be the ultimate 211!......Rich

The 2006 CDI of mine delivers a high of 41 mpg - strictly while on the highway. Around town on surface streets? 23 mpg or so. Around town in the traffic of the Interstates? Maybe 30 mpg or so. This,; according to the on board meter. I believe that it is about 10% optimistic, is what's been deduced here on-forum about 6 years ago.
My low-mileage 06 CDI has been a great car for me the past 7 years. I've only driven it 18K miles.
