    WOW how does he pull that off? I have trouble getting 12 mpg in mine [also a euro 6, no OD, maybe that is the trick]. I will agree with what others have said regarding the power of the 6, I have loved mine and feel that it does real well on the hills. Regarding the 3 lt I have heard repeatedly of successful transplants of this into the 6 cyl chassis.
