Well, I can handle driving at 50 MPH and no higher, since that's what I usually do anyway.

I wonder though, if it wouldn't be a better idea to get a smaller car or use the OM636 for a tractor or something, and wait it out for a different diesel engine, and see if I can't just make Cara a E/Gas hybrid or something...

IOW - I'm getting cold feet.
