There are many sad cases of abandoned diesels on the streets of San Jose, (as you may recall my earlier posts about this..).

I can only stress that as you are in Ohio, you could go south to at least Atlanta, or preferably Florida and get a rust free one! Should be tons of these in Florida! They are so much easier to work on if they are not from the rust belt.

I think the 300 is a reasonable car, but not for higher speeds.

It is too bad you can't get a 300 with a stick!
