Pulled a Interstate Battery delivery truck out of the ditch with it the first year during an ice storm. Would pull a farm fuel wagon over the property. Quite a capable vehicle.
Awesome vehicles! It would have been great if the EPA didn't handcuff diesels so much and allow that Liberty to last more than 1 model year.
