Thanks everyone! This is a really great ‘community’ here at Mbshop.
And….
As far as the female attention – sorry, but I don’t think that this car is going to exactly be a chick magnet.

But at least it isn’t a cop magnet! It would take some serious work to get a speeding ticket in this car, unless you’re on the open road.
Diesel Don,
If you look in the diesel forum, you’ll see some other postings that I have made. I am currently going through the car, and bit by bit, the performance is really improving.
Jeepboy,
It’s sort of a very light cream/yellow color with the palomino tex interior. As far as the D vs. SD, if I’m not mistaken, the SD outweighs the D by only a couple hundred pounds, surprisingly enough.
Thanks Again!
