| Thanks Diego every little bit helps. I don't know what the US Jeep dealers will require yet. Actually they don't know themselves as they don't have anything on the 2.8 diesel that we will be getting this summer. | |

hhhhhmmm... Using my Macverter... that comes out to about 20 to 27 miles per gallon. I guess that's better than the 15 to 20mpg they get now! The guy at the car show said September. |

I am strongly considering the Jetta TDI but am also considering the Liberty [gee, I wish there was something between the 2 sizes]. I like the idea of the continous rail technology but am wondering about the rest of the Liberty? Is the 'non-engine' parts of the Liberty quality? Just which engine [who makes it and where] will be in the 04 diesel Liberty? thx |

| You do know that only about 5000 diesel Liberties are supposed to be available the first year it is offered or at least that was the word some months ago. | |

| DCX has stated that ten thousand will be sold here as test mules to see if America will accept them. | |

"The Chrysler group on Monday, Nov. 25, said it would proceed with a 5,000-unit run of Liberty diesels after concluding that gasoline-electric hybrid technology is too expensive. There are 3,309 Chrysler-Jeep dealers in the United States and Canada, according to the automaker." -- Autoweek, Dec. 02, 2002 Not quite two per dealer! Shouldn't be easy to get one. So is there new info on the production run since then? |

| My dealership contact at Chrysler stated that after receiving enormous positive feedback after the first public announcement, they bumped that figure to 10,000 units. I know I already have 10 people waiting in line ready to put a deposit down. | |
| Wait until the end of the year when VW will bring back the Passat TDI (and wagon) with the new 134 HP, 247 lbs of torque TDI! | |

I might consider one. I'm really not a fan of the liberty and would much rather have a diesel in my Cherokee, but life goes on. I have no worries about a diesel vehicle. My VW TDI is fantastic and enjoy it much better than any gas economy car. Performance and economy are much better, plus it's rather substantial in weight/feel. No doubt an SUV with a diesel will be in demand. Some folks might be scared away by the diesel just because they don't know any better. My Jetta is more quiet on the highway than most gas cars. |
