due to space limitations there will be 4 cylinders in the front, 2 in the glove compartment, 2 in the trunk, and 2 under the back seat

Actually, I heard it's going into the Echo II which is coming back for '07!!!

BTW, the Echo II will be smaller in size than it used to be. Some specs..........

Headroom 29"
Legroom 29"
Hip room 29"
Shoulder room 29"

It will be a one-door and mini-van style and slide adjacent and rearward to the vehicle.

It will have a single rear wheel centrally located beneath the 3rd passenger's ass in back.

There will be a hatch, but it won't open. Only the glass portion will flip-up and items can be stored directly onto the 3rd passenger's shoulders.

The 3rd passenger will straddle the triptronic transmission located centrally as well.

There will be room for a passenger beside the driver, however the passenger size and weight limits will be as follows..........

Height limit - 42"
Weight limit - 58lbs.

Aside from that, I hear it's supposed to be a rocket and supposedly match last year's mileage numbers. I'm gonna have mine painted up like the General Lee.
