same city driving for me, AWD, 5 speed...and yes, I have 6 cylinders too. Don't think you have twice the power though.

I was talking to alfa with regards to more cylinders and double power.

Then again, I figured your land barge was a V8.

I'm at 280 HP, and I think 265 ft-lbs.

268 258 for me landboat

So we get similar power, similar gearing, similar drivetrain, and similar MPG. Yep, makes sense. :awe:

For some reason, when somebody says land barge or land boat, I always think an old Mercury Marquis V8, I'd forgotten about the MB until you said it.

I have about 3k miles before the first oil change.

And the car is going back to its dealership, since it is under a brief warranty, and we found out today that the right rear seatbelt is broken.

your gearing should be better than mine, 5 speed awd... and your car can't weight as much as mine.
