I can understand it. If you've ever had one of the newer turbo diesel pickups, they move out pretty well. Most of us have wondered what that engine would do in a lighter car. These new engines can make serious power with very few mods.

Nothing that would force me to take less than what NADA calls a GN in good condition. It has the cold air kit, upgraded Turbo, Master Power brakes, new headliner, etc. It has the original paint that's starting to fade. I had it for sale on all the sites, and I mean all, asking a firm $14K for the verifyable 83k car. Heck, it even passed California Smog! I got a lot of tire kickers, scammers, and low ballers, but no one with real money and real interest. Just a lot of guys who said they loved the GN and wanted to drive it.
