Not sure. I think it's just a smaller turbo diesel, 3.0 liter v6. 240 HP, 420 torque. I think it's rated 22 city, 28 hwy.

Actually, they disabled the EGR system under certain conditions at highway speeds. :-)

EPA busted them. Technically, they are allowed to do it, but they didn't have approval from the EPA first. Not nearly as bad as what VW did, but there will be fines.

It does more so than the bicycle I have been riding around on. :D Once Melissa gets off weekend duty, later this year I believe, I'll start looking for another street bike.

Two HP Pavilion 21.5-Inch IPS LED HDMI VGA Monitors
UPTab USB-C (TYPE C) to 2-Ports HDMI 4K Adapter Multi Monitor Splitter
AmazonBasics High-Speed HDMI Cable, 6 Feet, 3-Pack

New work laptop and I need to update my home setup. The two 19" (square) monitors I'm currently using are no longer sufficient.
