It was incredibly stupid, but entertaining. The part that bugged me the most was all the CGI car stunts. The F&F franchise has always been pretty good about this in the past, so it was disappointing to see here.

Dude, I know they were turbo as well, the point is there is a lot more you can do to tune a turbo engine than NA motors. The new diesels run insane amounts of boost these days. Also, did you completely ignore my point about getting around emissions restrictions with DEF in diesel? It’s not like they couldn’t get more…
Like I said on the diesels, being turbocharged and the major advancements coming from figuring out how to make power while staying within emissions regulations is why they were able to make such huge gains. It’s necessarily that they were able to make such crazy advancements in getting more power out of diesel fuel,…
That’s kind of the thing though, you seem to be cherry picking numbers from different times and variants in the platforms history and combining them to fit your point. For instance, you quoted 475 peak torque and are implying that’s at 1200 RPM. However, the only version of the engine that I can see made its peak…
Where are you getting your figures for the Vortec? As far as I can tell, the 8.1 that actually made it into the trucks never made the powers you’re quoting. That engine made big power in other applications, but not on the consumer truck market.
Nice.
Probably a little more hardcore than people thought they wanted, and when it came down to the reality of them they realized they wanted the looks more than the reality
Wanna go halfsies?
They actually do have backup mechanical latches. The guy who died just didn’t know where it was :(
Is curb weight the only measurement that matters for cost? Also “only 300 lbs” is 10% of the weight of the GT sounds pretty substantial to me.
Back in my day real Corvettes had metal exposed fasteners and we were thankful for it!
I weirdly dig that color.
Down with HHFP and the logical horse he rode in on!
You take your logic and reasoning and git on outta here! Git!!
Woah, that’s kinda cool actually
Shit, I have a 2.7t allroad and am thinking about buying a V8 Touareg... Is your friend me from the future?
I also disagree with his statement, but what the hell was racist or sexist about it?? He didn’t even mention the person involved, let alone their sex or race.
Not everyone even needs a full size pickup (most don’t), hence why the Toyota pickups were so popular and extremely useful, even in cities.
Just don’t watch his videos if you don’t like them. He doesn’t have to stop because you like another guy’s stuff better
