Atb dcno way yad go hunting in that too fecking noisey, thirsty and expensive to fix if it shits itselfscoobys are bombproof len mate you need something fast for the hit and run forays we do across the English border most cozzers don't want to play when you drop the box and hit 130 mph plus and drive it like it's stolen . Atb dcNot many motors you can do this with Then this I can understand the hill climb just about but what use is the drag strip for hunting purposes?If your not hunting 24/7 and enjoy a bit of ommmfh!

When I was looking for a new motor I was considering a ML 270 I always do a fair bit of homework and I have to say the Mercedes didn't come out great with lots of issues I personally decided to give it the swerve Quote Link to post Share on other sites
