The other day I asked the man who delivers pianos to our store if I could pop the hood on his big old deisel rig. MAN! That was cool. 500 turbo charged intercooled HP at 2300 RPM. More torque than you can shake a stick at. AND,.......... I recognized all of it. I knew what everything under that hood was, because it looked just like an enormous, upright version of what's under the hood of my Dart. Here is what's cool: He said it was almost new, with ONLY 200,000 miles on it. It made him feel proud, and appreciated to have me wowing over his rig. He has seen my dart there many times, and it turns out he had a 340 Duster back in the day, and wishes he could afford one now. But, he was raving at the superiority of in line sixes. Simpler, more torgue, fewer parts, and more HP per cubic inch. Stand tall brother.

I just thought I would share that.
