I'm surprised they went to the cost (financial and weight-penalty) to put  
a 6box, when a 5iver would do just as well, especially on a torquey  
turbodiesel. ALso long legged in the sense the limiting factor in long  
distance driving will be your bladder capacity, not fuel tank capacity ;).  
our honda ody does a shy under 2krpms @ 70 :)
