What are the options for american made fuel sipping offroaders with
5SP transmission? Pref cars that are normally rwd rather than fwd based compass/liberty. Note the fuel sipping requirement: 5Sp dodge ram is not an option.Forrester fallback is an option but I'm sure it's not the only game in down.
P.S. The protection of the engine oil pan on compass seems pretty decent for head on collisions even before you add skid plates for protection from bottom up hits. Kudos to jeep on that.
