Wow, what a great truck. Do you have any pics of the interior showing down below and up top? Also, is it a 5 speed manual? Thanks, -Dan

Of course, a diesel hybrid will get much better energy/mile than a gasoline hybrid... -Dan

Nice. Care to share what engine/trans combo they had? -Dan

And when will we see this diesel JK you drove? -Dan
