    Gen 2 LS gear ratios, motor and other questions

    Would be more accurate to state that it is a Mitsubishi motor that Chrysler also used in some vehicles. Its NOT a Chrysler motor.

    Gen III real world MPGs?

    '05 235/85R16 all else stock. T6 Synth in the engine and Redline in differentials. Highway 16 to 19 - depends on driver, terrain and speed as long as a major brand fuel is used - 87 octane. Premium doesn't show any difference tried it several times - not worth the money (my area of the...

    WTB - Honda Element AWD

    Thanks, didn't know this. Oh - and BTW I'd skip the Element. Bought one new in 2003. owned for 3 years. Hated every one of them. Although it does haul a lot of stuff. Suicide rear doors suck with a young family.

    Monteros on craigslist

    I concur with this comparison between my '05 and either the '92 or '93 with the 3.0l. Fantasizing about a 3.8l 5 speed auto (and Gen 3 suspension) swap into a Gen 1 SWB. That would be sweet. (Paj EVO)

    K5 Blazer - Sleeping Length

    I had a '76 way back in about 1989 or 1990 and slept in the back on several occasions (with GF too). I'm 5'8" - no issues. I think the interior room of the earlier trucks were about the same.
