It didn't really say a lot it in the story. One thing I found curious was it said that it will only be in the 4x4 which seems odd to me. I would have thought if you bought a turbo territiory you would be unlikley to take it off road so you would think the 2x4 would make more sense. It will also be interesting to see what spec the motor comes out at, you would think it would be slightly less powerfull the the XR6T. Has anyone else heard anything about it?
