I'm planing on going to the trails around Ouray Co mid august for a week of camping and offroading. Fantastic country and there is nothing better for the hart than going down the shelf road on black bear pass. In spots its so narrow there may only be an inch or 2 sperarting you from a 2500 foot drop /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smile.gif May also do MG2007 if some other stuff doesn't pan out.

4wd one way road that drops in to telluride colorado from the east. It's a beautiful drive till you get to the shelf road which starts off with an off camber right turn on loose rock with a shear cliff on the side. Each switch back may be a 3 to 5 point turn with no room for error. A crowbar may be needed to separate you from the seat at the bottom but the view from the top is so worth it.

seen the Top Gear episode with the Audi A8 (?) with a V-8 twin turbo diesel? The thing made loads of horse power, and tons of torque, and yet, Jeremy Clarkson managed to drive it 800 miles on 1 tank of gas, to average 40MPG.
I've read that VW is planning to bring the turbo diesel Jetta back to the states and have it 50 state legal.
I also read there's some sort of emissions development that the engine aliance between Audi, VW, and Merc for diesels that injects urea into the exhaust to cause a reaction that'll make the engines super clean... yeah, I said urea.....
Just imagine, having to wee into a bottle under the hood of your car so you can pass the emissions test... /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/jester.gif
