4K? Seems like a bit of a stretch. Now, give me a switch that actually runs anything I can throw at it in 1080p at 60fps and I’d be very happy.

Or, they could be clever and instead throw an LT2 in the (supposedly quite good) Colorado ZR2, get a similar power to weight ratio as the TRX and future Raptor, better driving dynamics with less weight, and undercut them on price.

No sponsorship has ever directly made me go out and buy that thing when I wasn’t already going to buy something in that product category.

However, when it comes time to buy a thing I already need/want (mostly automotive related: brake pads, oil, tires, etc), I am definitely more likely to consider brands that I have…

I would agree with all this for your low beam headlights where glare is a big concern. For high beams where glare is not (in theory, if you are not dumb), a concern, go nuts and put whatever bulb gives you the best visibility in your system.

I run Diode Dynamics high beams with the OEM HID lows in both my Corvette and…

I would say you can go ahead and upgrade reflector headlights if it is your high beam (or fog lamp but that’s kinda different) Most Subarus have projector low and reflector high headlamps. In that case additional glare is irrelevant because you should never have them on in a situation where it will cause glare. It…

Nah, Sasquatch will be a something like the Rubicon. Probably the 35s, lockers, skid plates, etc.

The Raptor is supposedly coming a year or so after the initial launch.

The real reason is not a practical one, it’s because Jeep advertises the Rubicon’s maximum crawl ratio (and the magazines all quote it) and Ford wants to be able to beat that number.

CJ Jeeps and most HMMWVs also had zero protection. The problem is once you start asking the vehicle to be armored, you end up with the 14,000lb Oshkosh L-ATV which doesn’t fit in a Chinook and can’t be transported at all by the Blackhawk, and it only carries 4.

So, yes. The goal of this is pure mobility at the cost of…

Yeah, totally. I don’t fault it for being heavy at all, I just wouldn’t use the word ‘light’ to describe it.

Lighter than the first gen, certainly. I don’t know that I would call a 5000lb truck ‘light’ though.

Regardless, cool trucks - hoping the new one will share a lot with high performance versions of the new Bronco

180hp and 400lbs is...actually not particularly impressive for a ‘hyperbike’ in the era of the H2R and the V4R. I’m surprised, I thought it would be more like 250+hp.

My dad has always said that one of his big regrets was that one fateful day, he and his brother took his brother’s S15 pickup into town instead of his 60s Pontiac Parisienne. When they had returned, their summer cabin had burned down and taken his car with it. He had some other cool cars, but that’s the one that he…

It’s easily the Southwest. Where old cool cars can actually go out on the roads regularly without fear of falling apart into a rusty mess.

There absolutely is a Chevrolet GT4 car. It’s called a Camaro.

The C8.R is ok (better than the Ford GT, anyways), but it’s a far cry from the Corvette thunder that I love:

Yep, totally subjective, I can respect your position. I’m just a little sad that while I’m excited they are going back to proper revvy N/A engines for the track focused Z06, it won’t have the same sort of sound to it. I was really hoping for something GT350-esque.

I’ll be sticking with my LS7 for the forseeable future…

The line about differentiating to sound more like an exotic really disappoints me. I love the cross plane V8 sound, generally, but I also think the GT350 sounds amazing. However I’m not a huge fan of the Ferrari V8 sound and it sounds like that’s more like what GM will be going for.

Hopefully the aftermarket can come…

I’m with you. I have no interest in FPS in my Elite, there are lots of good FPS games out there but very very few good Space Combat sims. I want to sit down with my VR headset and my HOTAS and pedals and fly a spaceship.

Elite Dangerous is the game that frustrates me more than anything else. I WANT to like it so badly. The actual spaceflight and combat is so, so good, especially in VR. The problem is there isn’t anything to DO other than grind in order to get to the next grind which lets you start grinding for the next thing.

And that right there is the problem with rear engine. If you go into a corner too hot...you’re pretty much screwed. It’ll understeer right up until you lift enough and it tries to spin on you.
