[me and my metro]

Back in the 80s I put an Oldsmobile 260" 90 hp Diesel in a 73 Olds Custom Cruiser wagon. The car got 25 mpg with a turbo 400 and 3.08 gears. I towed my Fj40 with it all the time and it would roll down the highway just fine. Of course the top two gears were high and low noise, it did not make the car go any faster. We even drove it to Yellowstone and Custer's last stand on vacation. It was pretty gutless at those elevations. Of course I'm happy with my na 6.5 in my one ton pickup, I tow a 10k lb travel trailer with it.
