Lol, fair enough.  It also is two more I guess.

For our honeymoon my wife and I did the Audi autocross experience at Sonoma Raceway and part of the experience was riding with one of the instructors for a hot lap in a V8 R8. Someone asked the instructors why they didn’t have the V10 and they said in that particular course the straights weren't long enough to justify…

Honestlyi think your spot on, and I wouldn’t be surprised if in spite of all the negative coverage in the automotive press for the Blazer it still sells well, because it’s a cuv and people seem to buy them no matter how bad they are.

Just keep in mind that the pic is of it's marginally safer 4 door brother

It’s probably high, but I will give it a no for nostalgia. I remember when people were putting 350s in these, or just a loud exhaust and subs. I would probably be ready to buy it until I test drove it, remembered what they ride and drive like, how bad the plastic rattles and that the 4.3 starts out strong and then…

Perhaps someone who has dabbled in British sports cars would like a challenge. 

Getting any old Fiat to Moab alone might be his best accomplishment yet.

Now if only land Rover would introduce the new defender as mid engine they could dominate the news cycle for months

If you miss out on this offer, JUUL be sorry.

I’m not sure if the parasitic loss is as significant once the vehicle is up to speed. Otherwise I think Ford would have probably continued with their automatically locking hubs from the 90s instead of the spline between the axels like everyone else was using. Granted, a lot of them did break and bulge out when people…

Around town the weight difference is probably the biggest reason, although on the highway it becomes less of a factor. On the highway the added height for ground clearance creates quite a bit of drag, and the undersides of vehicles tend to create a lot of drag. Wider tires also create more aero drag, and more height…

There are parts to address the odd rear roll center that really up the handling of them too.  My heart had always loved the C5, but the more I learned about the C4 the more I appreciate it.  

I think in general with the smaller turbo engines you can get really good mileage, I have a Civic with the earthdreams 4 cylinder and have gotten over 40mpg on trips where the average speed was around 80mph and in the mid 40s on trips that are slower.  They seem to like brisk acceleration up to cruising speed.  If you…

Seriously, how many astronauts owned electric Fiat 500s?  Does the five price Corvette luggage set designed for the C7 for perfectly?  No. CP

I hated the reveal myself, about thirty minutes in they finally got to the specs you care about and most of the first bit was justifying the design to retirees with Polo shirts who are more concerned about if they can put golf clubs in the car.  

I had some serious want, then got thinking I could get a Genesis with a manual, or my friend bought a stinger with awd and the v6 in this range. sItjust doesn’t make sense, they priced themselves low enough to remind me that the stinger exists and offers better value and unless gm has an ace up their sleeves has a…

I’m not going to lie, a part of me wanted to make a snarky remark such as, "Congratulations ZF, you just invented the Powerglide".  Although a five percent change in range seems small, it is an extra 10-15 miles on a charge, I wonder if it downshifts to get more regenerative braking.

It’s tough, because the part of me that had to look at it takes the Blazer, and the part of me that had parts of the Mopar performance parts catalog memorized growing says trail Duster

Very aware, my family has had a 70 and 72, on our plow truck you can see outside the cab and on our 3/4 ton we welded in replacement panels.  This is pretty minor compared to the rot around the fenders if just about every square body I saw growing up.

Whenever someone waxes poetic about the square body’s I do wonder if they are aware this generation existed. They looked better, and the square bodies rusted out, even in Montana where we seen to have less of an issue with the tinworm than most snow states.
