Alas, I decided not to buy a diesel, but did do the home work. You guys may or may not know this, but the 2.8 turbo is the same engine used in the Cummings Mercruiser diesel marine package. Not sure if they still make it, but they did at least until two years ago. The bonus is Mercury supports its products......fore ever. So, hard parts are available, and will be for some time. Injectors, turbos, etc. So even if Chrysler/Fiat drops the ball, you can still keep the CRD Liberty alive. |

There's a very large (man-made) lake near ATL that has lots of good engine mechanics and rebuild shops nearby, mostly for all the powerboat users. I'm sure any major nautical area that has powerboats is fairly similar. Go find a good one and bring a case of beer, grease the wheels for that one day down the road when you need to replace the cylinder sleeves. Dan |
