Such a lovely tricolor. 4x4 is nice too. When I was a teenager, they were still being used as ambulance vehicles, fire trucks, road service, forestry, etc, idk about now. I loved them because many of them Diesels.

Here in the USA it`s hard to find old-school setups and not too many options for diesels either unless you are a great inventor/mechanic.

I met this family when camping in Yellowstone N Park. He kept idling next to my car. I could not hear the d24t at all but it was a well built offroad gear.
He has 90.000 ($ not miles) in it so far and upgrading! Of course it has a big diesel engine, of course it is a Cummins (6L engine, it`s the USA )

I`m curious if a d24t could somehow get dropped into one of these vans. If it moves a Pinz, then it`s not that hard to power a van, right? I`d love to know. (Or only into the trunk of it? )
