Greetings from Portland, Oregon

It has been everything I hoped for! Since the weather has been nice, I've had it out pretty much every other weekend for camping.

Preventing blown head gaskets

So I've researched and lurked long enough to know that blown head gaskets are a major problem on the L300. I've read the horror stories, the repair threads, and spotted the ads for high-mileage L300s with head gaskets already repaired ... or in need of repair. But is there any way to prevent it? I h...
