I think it’s super CP, but I don’t get why you and other people are comparing it to newer Tacomas. They’re completely different trucks. Someone looking at a Hilux/Toyota Pickup isn’t likely to be interested in a modern Tacoma - which share very, very, very little in common.

All the cosmetic work aside, any modified WRX is crackpipe. Those engines are glass, and blow up with the slightest provocation when modified.

Okay, what’s your point? WRFs are 24-25 at the wheel, while CRF is 18.

I’ve have never seen a single stock CRF250L come anywhere near 23 HP. The better runs are around 18HP. The 300cc big bore kits pull them up to around 23-24HP.

The CRF250L is a fancy new DOHC liquid cooled engine in the same state of tune as a SOHC air cooled XR250. The 250L puts 18hp to the ground at best.

The CRF250L isn’t a detuned CRF250X/R engine like how the WR250F is a detuned YZ250 engine. It’s bespoke, and waayyyy down on power. The CRF250L puts about 18 hp to the ground, while a stock WR is closer to 25. The WR is around 40% more powerful.

I like the CRF250L, but its too underpowered and way overweight. KTM’s 500 EXC is over 50 pounds lighter and it’s street legal too.

Only non rechargeable lithium batteries have elemental lithium that would react with water.

From what I understand, this design with the fixed structure and removable panels is pretty much what the next Jeep Wrangler will have.

Every single automaker usually has a disclaimer that up to 1qt/1000 miles is normal. It really doesn’t mean the engine is unreliable, it will probably happily go 200,000 miles.

Doubt it. Most vacuums use brush motors which naturally spark where the brushes meet the commutator. That would have ignited the fuel vapor

The shifters in the 09-12 Rams are not electronic. They are cable operated. It’s highly unlikely both shifters work.

Actually I’m going to go ahead and argue that no one has made a Wrangler rival. I don’t think the XTerra, FJ Cruiser or Hummer were “serious wrangler rivals” at all. All of these vehicles missed the mark of what makes a real off-road vehicle special. They were pretty much a caricature of an off-roader, and that’s why…

Old Corollas are fantastic cars. I want to know all about them!

So the current Outback looks to be about the same size as the early 2000s Forester, is the Crosstek about the size as the old Outbacks then?

Yes, your “understanding” of aviation autopilot comes after doing extensive research into what it actually does, and how it controls the plane. I can assure you that the vast majority of the population equates autopilot with something that is fully able to navigate and drive/fly itself. The fact that so many people on…

I would just replace the blown bearings, clean the gears with electrolysis or some kind of gentle blasting abrasive like walnut shells, put some good moly oil in it, and just run it.

...and that Caprice interior looks twice as old as the Camry interior, has cheap feeling switch gear, poor wearing seats, hard nasty plastic everywhere. Almost everything in the XV10 Camry is soft touch. Everything in the Caprices flexes and feels cheap.

Nice strawman trying to “discredit” me there. Your argument is failing so you attack me personally, instead of my points. 10/10 would beat in an argument again.

No, most modern cars have much, much nicer interiors than the caprice. Pretty much any large Japanese and European car was better. I think even the 90s Chrysler Concorde/LHS was better. Everything in a mid 90s Camry interior feels subtantial, everything in a caprice feels like cheap junk.
