If your powertrain is the same from harmonic balancer to drive hub, and from airbox to downstream O2 sensor, and the vehicle weights are close, I believe that the Feds will take your word for it (unless it’s a diesel, thanks VW), but if any of the powertrain details are substantially changed, then you’ve got to…

That same motor is already federalized with a manual in the US when used in the 240i, which is a performance car with a higher take rate for the manual in the US than in the EU.

The US has a bigger market for performance cars with manuals than Europe. Europe’s predilection for manuals is very economy car focused.

The 2017 was on a platform that had minimal mechanical updates since 1997. GM has 75% of the full size BOF SUV market because everyone else abandoned it.

It’s more like the current shop is owned by a fabricator himself and the first shop is owned by a publicly traded company. I live in a right to work state, the union shops don’t represent the floor or the ceiling or even the mean when it comes to wages in my industry (welding) and my area. They are competing for…

Arguable. Probably right in many or perhaps even most cases, but I’ve left a Union shop for a non union shop and found better pay at the same time, the annual cost of living pay increases my friends at the old job are getting don’t match mine either, and at the non-union shop im able to receive merit based increases…

Oh God, that would be an internet trolling apocalypse, WRT the ZR1 vs the GT (see VIR lap times). I’m not sure if that makes me want it more or less.

If you want to go fast, get the 300+ hp V6, the diesel is the better choice if you want to crawl over rocks.

Yikes. Obviously width is going to help with high speed desert stability, but how is the basic Ranger going to compare to the regular Colorado or differentiate itself from the F150 if it’s that much wider?

The Colorado ZR2 can be had with the 2.8 liter Duramax diesel too.

What makes you think that the Colorado ZR2 doesn’t have a factory warranty?

But how does it compare to the ZR2?

Might want to give the article another once over, the twin brothers are men.

The wizardry in the Multimatic DSSV dampers is hydraulic, not electronic, and this technology is available in F1 cars, the Austin Martin One-77, the Camaro Z28 and ZL1 1LE, the Corvette ZR1, the AMG GT-R, and Ford GT.

If you think that sugar detox is going to be easier than ethanol detox, I’ve got some bad news for you.

I’ve got a regular cab shortbox 4wd with the 5 speed stick. I’m already limited by axle hop when it comes to how much power I can put down (it’s a 3300 lb truck with 250 hp, it’s actually pretty quick). Forced induction would necessitate hefty suspension upgrades.

No, it’s a shit idea, can you imagine coming out of Corkscrew at like 110 and not accelerating? Awful.

I’ve got an Atlas 5 cyl in a manual Colorado, it’s a hoot. The mileage isn’t much better than it would be with the 5.3 V8, and the first couple years of production had a valve guide wear issue that kinda torpedo’d the rep of the whole engine line, but it’s a very willing motor and has good manners.

They already say that you drive the 460 horsepower Grand Sport like it’s a Miata-esque momentum car, and the ZR1 has even more aero, more mechanical grip, and more capable dampers. a 300 horspower ZR1 would probably be able to be driven flat out through a lot of race tracks, never lifting, just counting on aero and…

It’s a sizzle reel of a construction site, and they’ve been using stills from the same footage in their print advertising all summer. You’ve gotta be obsessed with the border wall or utterly ignorant of what factory construction looks like to make that giant leap of logic required to see this ad as an endorsement of…
