I had one for a week.

 

Yes, a week. My grandfather gave it to me as he never drove it and I quickly found out why, unless there is a gas station on every corner you are going to run out. GUZZLER!

I don't know what you were doing wrong, but John and myself went to Lakair last summer towing the boat fully loaded on $80.00 worth of gas at I believe 1.09 per ltr...

i'm happy with mine. bought it used a couple of years ago. power steering pump went on me - easy fix, that's it. the straight six is a simple time tested motor, it'll last a long time and it's easy to work on if you have to. gas mileage is relative to what you're used to driving. i don't find it all that bad. wife/gf may complain about the rough ride but it's a truck.

 

it's been a useful vehicle; tows a 17' lund and 4x4 goes through anything.

A buddy of mine told me it stood for junk engineering executed poorly! They do seem like a lot of truck for not too much money though.

I have had a couple over the years.The 4.0 six is a rock to be sure,can't hurt it!Not the greatest ride and the fuel mileage aint great but it will run forever.The ABS on the early 90 years was a problem butr otherwise its all good.
