That's awesome!! I need your wife to train my wife...

Did your wife also buy you a plane ticket to attend the October HID event?

Yeah, cant imagine why the US market isnt catered for with these, its Euro 5 compliant, so it would meet CA smog laws.

In CA they have forced all sellers to retrofit new desiels with a urea tank. Do they make u guys have that for euro5? It's some kind of injected additive to make the desiels run cleaner I guess.

No urea here. Euro 5 is a VERY high standard for emmisions, especially in a diesel and the Triton meets that standard.

The US forces diesels away due to politics. They do not want efficient vehicles here.

Nice ride! I drove one for several weeks over here in kuwait and it was a blast. We have since moved to 4 door 4cly hilux's because they are automatics. Every day I complain trying to get the Mitsubishi's back lol

You aint the only one, Tom, trust me ........ I would have rather had the cash to finish that first, but one doesnt look a gift horse in the mouth

Oh no, please don't read me wrong... that is an AWESOME gift and wow... it's absolutely terrific... and my guess is, it's really very nice to have a fully functional, new and WARRANTEED truck.
