Back in the diesel game!

I haven't had a diesel since I sold my 300sd probably 5 years ago. Not anymore! JDM import of a Mitsu Delica. I'm already in love with this thing, it's as funky as it gets. Even for a Delica, this one is really unique since it was a TV van for a while. It has a lot of electronic mods and also a PTO for an underfloor mounted generator.

Drove it 7 hours home yesterday and realized all of the internet hearsay about them being difficult to drive is way overblown. This is less tippy then my explorer, just as fast (slow?) as my 300sd was, and pretty comfortable. RHD took some getting used to.

My other car is a Saturn sky which I thought got a ton of attention. This van is something else...everyone wants to ask me about it...parking lots, gas stations, honks and thumbs ups on the street everywhere. Not sure what the neighbors think though...
