Flinch,

Thanks, that eases my mind a LOT about the prospect of shopping since there are way more used 4s around.

Come to think of it, my old carpentry boss had an '87 4 cyl. and I once drove an even ton of construction debris to the dump in it. No power problem, and in fact the ride was a lot better!

No way my boat weighs 1100 since my bud and I easily lifted it by hand into the back of his Dodge.
