Dan,
I currently have no plans to sell my Volvo. If that changes, I'll be sure to let you know. I must say I'm impressed with it. After having the stock engine upgraded to fuel injection, it purrs like a kitten and has really impressive performance. In my opinion, and I know that there will be many people who disagree, it is a better choice than a Pinzgauer IF you are willing to accept the more difficult sourcing of parts. It has similar off road capabilities to the Pinzgauer, but it is more capable on road (faster top and cruising speeds and QUIETER).

Cheers,
Greg

Hey Dan,
Great job on the handout! "Murphy" even made it to Page 1.
To answer another message poster's question, I recently saw a documentary (Discovery or History channel I think) on the Magna Steyr plant. It was interesting to see them producing the Grand Cherokee, M-B G-Wagen and the Porsche Boxster roadster simultaneously on the same line. The Grand Cherokees that I saw in the show were left hand drive.

SDP made the 1994 right hand drive version of the Jeep Grand Cherokee?
Even less likely sounding, but they made the first batch of Aston Martin Rapides too in 2010 (as Magna Steyr)..

A few people asked for a smaller 4 page Haflinger handout (like the 4 page Pinz handout) so it can easily be printed on one 11x17 sheet and then folded.
It has been uploaded to same folder as the orignal 8 pager (which will probably get bigger as I make a more complete handout for my use).
