You say that, but when you are hauling mulch in your brand new awesome Ridgeline and your tire blows out, have fun shoveling all that mulch out of your truck on the side of the road.

And a few in Dallas. I see them here on occasion.

I was gonna say...lol

Are there significant drawbacks to only being able to adjust cam timing based on RPM and not engine load? How advantageous is it to be able to change the relationship between RPM and phase angle on the fly, rather than being bound by physical relationships like Hooke’s law and centripetal force?

Usually results in them busting your balls for an extra $20 over “worn wiper blades”.

I live in Florida. What’s a “safety inspection”?

When I lived in TX I had a Safety Inspection license. I probably would of stickered it lol.

Someone’s floorpans are in for a world of hurt.

Just think, California is probably one of the hardest states to do that in. One of the things that drives us as Americans. Tell us we cant do something, and well find a way to get it done and look good doing it.

We need a cheap V8 Pony car. The best local Ford dealer has one Mustang GT for 32.5 and the rest of the cars are Premium V8s for >36k.

The Mustang GT

How about a 10-15k brz that comes with no engine and transmission, just some ls engine mounts.

Ford GT with an Ecoboost I-4 I guess?

Nissan needs to re-release the Nissan S-Chassis. Make that crap like 17-18k for a base RWD sports coupe with an available manual transmission, and turbo option, and add all the goodies like a helical LSD, and all the goodies. Nobody wants to pay 30k for the 370Z.

Stripper Viper with a 6.4 or 5.7 Hemi? I know the V10 is the essence of the car, but you might be able to move enough cheapies to posers to keep the V10 version afloat.

Nail on the head with the 911, though my thought is junk the rebodied-Golf they’re currently calling a Beetle and sell a new N/A 4-cylinder RR car.

Yeah, yeah, will never ever happen.

Mercedes G-wagen. Originally designed as a brutish 4x4 for the roughest conditions, now it’s an expensive luxo-cruiser for soccer moms. Still very capable but 90% of them ever see anything more rugged than gravel.

We have seen the CG pull some hairy stunts but if they asked for surface help, i’m pretty sure they needed it.

Hopefully Maine isn’t one of those states that bills the victim for emergency response.
