Man up there insisted he needed to lift his truck to avoid "bottoming out" in "two foot snow drifts" so that he can get to work. Let's break that down. A "lifted" truck is one that has been modified to increase the height of the undercarriage over the ground. In the US, this is often done in one-inch increments. Four inches is about as much as you'd lift a Jeep Wrangler without getting crazy. That's roughly the depth he's talking about. A 'knee boot' that would fit you would be about two feet high, and if you were wearing it, two feet would be about the top of the boot. If you had to walk through snow that deep, you might have some trouble. But if you only had to walk through a "drift" that deep, probably not, since the surrounding snow would not be that deep. Next is ground clearance, also called ride height, which is the vertical distance between a flat surface a vehicle is on and the lowest-hanging part of the vehicle that is not intended to contact the ground.

Used 2019 Mercedes-Benz C-Class Coupe Pricing - For Sale

At Mercedes-Benz, the GLK compact SUV is second in sales behind the very popular C-Class, so it鈥檚 no surprise that the famous German brand is taking special care of it. Unveiled in 2009, the GLK was due for a minor facelift. They used the usual recipe as before, but played a little with the front end (headlights, bumper) and with the taillights. The passenger compartment, on the other hand, warranted more consideration. The most notable change is to the shifter, which moves from the central console to the steering column, like it used to be back in the day. Although it鈥檚 electronic now, I still think that they had it right back in the day. This moves means that Mercedes can offer more storage space. The dashboard has also been updated and now features bigger gauges, a more modern steering wheel and round air vents. The result is striking. When the GLK first came to North America, it had but one engine: a 3.5-litre V6. Everywhere else in the world, the GLK was offered with several engines, including diesels. That, of course, is no surprise; Mercedes-Benz has always known a thing or two about diesels.

2019 Audi Allroad

THE Australian motoring media has long lamented the lack of a diesel engine option in the huge and hugely opulent Lexus LX four-wheel-drive. And now the brand has finally listened, transplanting the 4.5-litre twin-turbo diesel V8 from the Toyota LandCruiser 200 on which the big Lexus is based. 8650 less than the V8 petrol-powered LX570. After a week living with the derv-devouring LX, we remained unconvinced that the diesel transition was particularly successful or worthwhile. No two ways about it, the Lexus LX450d is bloody expensive. 134,500 plus on-road costs. 14,170 more than the LandCruiser 200 Sahara diesel on which it鈥檚 based. It costs about the same as a Mercedes-Benz GLS350d Sport or Range Rover Sport HSE SDV6. 23,600 more than the Infiniti QX80. 23,600 difference in fuel savings. But none of the above rivals can hold a candle to the Lexus鈥?LandCruiser breeding - although the Infiniti does have Nissan Patrol guts - and we鈥檇 wager the Lexus holds its value better than the Europeans and the Infiniti.
