Thats a goodun'. There is also a site I came across (VOSA recalls). For all the knocking the Fronteras receive they have far fewer recalls than some supposedly luxury quality motors.

Maybe we should commission a sticker:

"best 4x4x4xfar? - fewest recalls-x-far"

Kel, possibly the guy doing the timing, etc, got bored and went home.
I mean let's face it here, the 0-60 time for a 2.8 is "eventually" and you'd quite a run up to fathom top speed (probably very low 90's mph)

Dave, aye, but no performance data entered.
