By your logic anything with risk shouldn’t be allowed.

No mystery here.

“Just because someone knows that it’s more dangerous to sit next to the track and then chooses to sit there anyway doesn’t really mean, y’know, the option should still be there. You give anyone a couple of beers and anything sounds like a good idea.”

Sure, but have your bombed all over the muddy backwoods with a full load in the back?

A contemporary full size truck wouldn’t be that hard to maneuver. 

I was back and forth until I got to the part about it only being 2wd. CP. 

if it were a taco sure... probably still worth it for the SC edition... that said I’d really want to watch the tail pipe on startup, because my experience with high mileage Nissan’s is that they start to consume oil before falling apart completely, with all the recent work this should start nice and clean and be a NP,…

We’ve had some interesting Escorts.

If you’re drinking mass-produced macro brews these days, it’s your own fault. There’s so much good beer being produced in the US these days you’re spoiled for choice. Unless your main criteria for beer is “must come in a 30-pack for under $20" you can find plenty of good stuff.

You do know that the Euro Chevette was the same as the US one apart from the Dropsnoot and lack of catalytic converter. Same with the Escort. A fast version does not magically make a better range. I agree on the Granny, as that was a genuinely great car with a slightly dodgy rep and ruined when the Scorpio came about.

They do fine at 8000 feet in Mexico City. Turbocharged engines lose way less power at altitude than NA

Pikes Peak is PERFECT for electric cars: Short distance is clearly within range limitations, tight turns leverage instant torque, elevation gains and reduced oxygen are irrelevant.

After dumping all kinds of money into the Passat this one needs to be reliable.

2015 SHO would be a good option.

Wait, a 14 year old car with 134k is considered a “shitty beater?”

Should Wikipedia be the definitive source for documenting all Tesla fires?

Why? They are clearly building the most reliable, best bang for the buck EV on the market.

The problem is fixed is it not? The whole EV catching fire thing is not yet solved.
