My wife and I to road trip with our 200 pound dogs and I'm currently shopping 08-09 Suburbans so I can get better mileage than the strained V6 in our 4Runner currently gets. With us, the dogs and a loaded roof box it only gets 14-16 depending on the wind, the newer Burbs get better and we won't be crammed in. These…

Look at where his head is when seated in the car, its barely above the shoulder supports and is pretty much right in front of the aluminum head rest support. I don't know how tall he actually is but he looked like a 7 year old in the front seat. I would probably look like an idiot in the front seat if given the…

Turn it on, lift foot from throttle pedal and it does the rest. Those help keep speed in check on a long grade without cooking the brakes.

Yup, garage is full till spring. Dive in here fer info.

Yeah, we all suck. The word asshole is almost always in the air around me and my friends. Unfortunately we have nothing but smiles. Fuck em.

Don't over look the Adventure, it is THE best city bike I've had. Potholes no longer exist and you can load it like a fucking mule. I had a Multistrada and a 999, the sport bikes are for screwing around for me the go to is the Adv because of comfy awesome fun. The 990 motor has good grunt down low and will put put…

My commute right now is 6 miles but I unfortunately serve several facilities from the main hospital so pedaling between them would be frowned on especially for the stat calls. I should tell the next stat call this summer that I'll be there"sometime today as I'm on my bicycle". I would like to see the persons face when…

@CzechMonster, why not Fred Firestone?

Sounds as though this works for you then. I LOVE big N/A motors but got tired of feeding so much when I only need the bigger amounts of power here and there. I got used to rowing the trans more when I had an S2000, fantastic car but being N/A and small cubic inchs I had to do some shifting to get into the power for…

I'm also interested in the EXC500, again quivering asshole fun. I'm 6'2" 270 and am just stupid enough for these things. Cars/trucks are fun but bikes make me laugh out loud often. I've raced mountain bikes back in the day and will be riding in the short future again as I'm nursing a torn Achilles tendon, surgery…

I was lucky to grab a 2012 Adventure 990 R before these new rolling computer versions came out. I'm still intrigued by the new ones but the one I have will be with me for quite some time, I foolishly sold off a 2005 carbed Adventure 950 and after a few other bikes I'm back on what I consider the best all around bike…

My KTM gets the best fuel I can get, as you know, most fun bikes need the higher octane.

I find 2,000 rpms is a good cruising speed fer me, no turbo, 4.0 V6 on 33's, I'd have to go 45 in 4th to drop to those rpms. Mt truck gets really really thirsty when trying to accelerate from that low of RPM.

I'm eyeballing 2008 3/4 Suburbans with the 87 octane swilling 6.0, the nice thing 08 and on gives is the 6 speed trans with that and driving "like a human" it will get the same empty and better than the 4Runner when I have it loaded with my wife, two 200 pound dogs all our crap in the roof box and me, especially when…

And I couldn't care less about D-bag Patrick. Yaya a midpack racer is not happy to here she sucks. Go crash into another car.

He's a comedian, I'm tired of hearing that comedians have to apologize for certain jokes. Get some thicker skin you fucking twats.

Not aimed at you, per say and did not mean to say you are "cheap", but to everyone that thinks its so much more for a tank of correct fuel. Like i said, I tried this and my T4R get 3 to the gallon better when im driving normally. Its being prepped for sale as it is now too small and the 3/4 ton suburban runs on 87…

Why lug it down so fucking far? Any car that is down that far in the revs will have a hard time getting going.

IT is NOT the entry level powertrain, the 3.7 is the base turd motor for you to fill with whatever dog piss you desire. Do not buy the premium turbo 4 and you can sto sounding crazy.

Superchargers(belt driven blowers) and turbo chargers came out of WWII so that the piston driven fighter planes at the time could make their peak power at high altitudes, nitrous oxide was used then as well for the same effect, more power at altitude to get after the baddies.
