I am starting the process of buying my first LC and thought I would come here for some help. Been lurking and learning for a while on here so I have a good understanding of the vehicles, but need some advice on my options.
I am looking at two 80s... one is a 91 4.0L that has very low miles, the other is a 94 4.2TD with about 135K miles. I prefer the 91 for the options it has, color, mileage, etc.. the problem is I worry about the 4.0L motor especially when it comes to power and MPG... I know I know why look at an LC if that's a concern.. Do the diesels get that much better MPG? Is it worth giving up some of the options just to have the diesel? I was dead set on the 91 until I saw the diesel.. so any thoughts or help you can slide my way is very very appreciated.
