........On another note, how much would I fetch for a box KCD year 2007 with changed 1KZ Diesel engine? 7l 9 seater with adds-on. Just very very rough estimates from veterans for planning purposes.

Confused as ever. 2 weeks ago I did mombasa-nairobi with 3500 in a auto transmission petrol box. No load. Speeds consistently hovering between 80 and 90. Gentle pickup. Hata hiyo 3500 ilikuwa nyingi. Strange but true. Somehow Im beginning to believe that the high fuel consumption may largely be attributed sorely to drivers trying to get the same performance from their diesel colleagues.Hard driving. Diesels are also driven hard but they have the advantage of torque and turbo at their disposal

Was it a 2,000cc or 3,000cc petrol box?
The opposite of courage is not cowardice, it's conformity.

Driving long distances has an advantage as far as fuel efficiency is concerned than a short congested city road. Reasons are braking and acc is to the minimal.

@Tokyo: This is slightly off topic. Might you be knowing any companies/agents that ship or handle less than container load exports from Nihon?
