Thanks, that's interesting. Can the weight of the 6.0 be right at 238 lbs? If so, I think I want (need) one 8)

As rotten at math as our young people are today, it would benefit them if we switched 100% to metric tomorrow. And I would be happy as a clam. It's just too simple to move a decimal point back and forth. Here's a simple example -- 1000 cc engine = 1 liter engine. The equivalent in English 61 cubic inches = how many ounces, quarts, or gallons? Too dumb.

I absolutely swear that spec sheet said lbs. this morning, I checked it against both the 8.1 and the 5.7 to make sure I wasn't seeing things as I figured it was a misprint form the gitgo. . . No, really Maybe it said 23800 decagrams . . .

Nope.....It said 525 last night, I was wondering how all that aluminum and plastic weighed more then all the cast on the 5.7.:^
