Loved the exhaust note, didn't like the price difference for what I needed. Would rather spend $10k elsewhere... like worthwhile addons and... my newborns (what timing eh?).  |
It's not really $10K difference. There are a lot of things standard on the V8 compared to the 3.0 and diesel. I waited two years for the diesel. I thought the 3.0 gas engine didn't have enough power for me and the 4.8 used too much fuel. I'm not knocking anyone, I just wanted to point out the 4.8 isn't $10K more than the 3.0 when you figure the options.
