What do you mean "fuck up"?
VW is a known authority on turbo diesels and turbo engines in general...
The engine will be solid, at least.
I dont know which engine he got but the V6 diesel can put down 410 ft/lbs torque. Thats plenty good for a truck that size and more than a ford 5.0. Its about the same power as the ram 3.0 ecodisel.
Probably wont win any acceleration races though but it has torque and thats what matters in a truck.
The 5.0 ford would handily beat it in a race though.
well he's gonna look like a faggot. At least it's not a ridgeline.

That is F-150, which is a large pick up truck. Amarok is more like medium/compact pickup truck. Like Ford Ranger.
3.2L TDCi Duratorq diesel (Top trim of Ranger) vs 3.0 TDI V6 (Amarok)
200PS and 470 Nm vs 224PS and 550Nm
Ranger has no chance against Amarok.

Your dad did good, It's a good looking pickup and it's engine is pretty good.

the amarok is one of my favs
nice choice

The Amarok is pretty nice.
People talk too much shit about Volkswagen or VAG in general. The cars aren't to everyone's taste but they are really good in general. I've driven several VWs with the 2 liter turbodiesel, the engine is awesome in terms of fuel consumption and reliability (if driven correctly, talking about not going wot with a cool engine letting the engine run a while after driving). I doubt that the v6 will be any different. Also the general quality of VWs is at least nice. He didn't fuck up in any way.

It's a good pickup, just gets a bad rep thanks to it's owners.
>>17891061
He actually didn't. I've driven one with mechanic transmission and they pull just fine. Also tell him to be careful with it because the body is literally made of tin can
One of the few pick up trucks that isn't insulting to look at.

It's a VW so it's a piece of shit, other than that it's really ugly. I'd say he fucked up pretty badly.
