There is always a bigger fish:

Anyone else have the strong impression that this was only “necessary” in that somebody wanted to play with their military-esque toys? This driver wasn’t going anywhere, and the truck was surrounded by SWAT, presumably armed to the teeth. They seriously couldn’t come up with a better idea to get the driver out of the

Man, if someone would have commented this exact same thing yesterday, they would prove to be a smart cookie. Lol, I knew this was going to be the case. Looks like the OEM decided the customer was going to be the one to take the financial hit, imagine that? 

“Have an A-1 day!”

I tried that.

Money laundering.

It’s a slow news day.  They need something to fill out the space.

Turbo for off-roading isn’t a good idea. H6 swap would be more ideal. The stock 2.5 still works fine but the weak link would be the transmission if it’s the cvt.  Head gaskets are a cake walk on those cars. With the engine removed and no machine shop work, it could be done in a day.  Did a set on my 01 @180k, car

Good, happy to see a massive fine for a change.

Now make them do a recall to fix every engine with the defeat device in place. Also make it impossible to license any vehicle for on road use if the recall isn’t addressed within 6 months. I realize state based licensing makes the second have of my proposal impossible.

I got to drive one of these, and review it. Left out of my copy were the the three incidents where the passenger seat was occupied by young ladies asking me to take them for a drive. ( It is probably worth mentioning that I am older than some deities and have the charm of an accident in a mall parking lot)

pffttt the true pollution issues is with the corporations, not a 350SDL...

Keeping it on the road in place of a new car will do less damage than buying a new car...by a lot. 

Put a LS in it.

Damn, do I hate the giant screen. Subaru has to have it, because everyone has to have it, but at this point they’re just making up stuff to put on it.

A MB diesel for less than $4k? I’d sell a kidney for this. Where do i sign?

It sounds like someone trying to describe a Fiat 500e over the phone, but without specifying any proportions, and the person writing down the nodes wrote it as if it was a full sized SUV
