Info on the mazda diesel.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mazda_Diesel_engine

I have never been in one, but you have about 4 inches on me. I relocated the seat in my 74 chevy luv. Drilled new holes and moved it as far back as possible. The ranger the seat is as far back as it goes too. I have long legs. My next truck will be a crew cab. F250 powerstroke. :wink:

I have seen videos of people doing stoppies in the minitrucks. Alot of forward weight. You may need to tote around firewood to balance out.

I think in Canada you got more toyota diesels. Landcrusiers. Rovers etc.

Maybe a vw 1.6 diesel swap into a minitruck. Probably be good for 65mpg.
