I've seen this truck at the Defence Expo in Abu Dhabi. It would make for an awesome recreational rig if it could be ordered un-armoured... as it is though, it's incredibly heavy which is reassuring about it's level of armoring. The doors were so heavy most people that approached the truck assumed it was locked. Just…
By that train of thought... who can afford a Rolls Royce Ghost but can't spring for the Phantom?
New camera rig for whatever replaces Top Gear?
The Wrangler is either 2WD, 4WD or 4WD Low. There is no All-Wheel-Drive mode suitable for use on road as there's no centre differential, it's just on or off. Being in 4wd on the street would blow the transfercase or a driveshaft very quickly. So unless the owner doesn't get that, or deliberately put it in 4WD to mess…
That Wrangler is 2 generations past having leaf springs....
"While I don't think I over-corrected, the steering wheel was definitely turned to the right some degree to get the nose pointed back down the straight. Once the left side dropped, the car shot back across the track and I tried to get the car to go off straight, but it was too late and there was no grip for steering…
It's all about communication... she needs to understand how important it is to you but at the same time you need to reassure her that things that are important to her - her hobbies - your financial security etc. - are not going to suffer as a result... And then make it a positive thing for the both of you. Highlight…
This thing starts off like the background music to Grand Theft Auto...
This is quite an interesting one... play with some numbers and it appears the engine would be humming along at just 2,300 rpm while cruising at 70 mph... and just 3,300 at 100 mph. Not too bad and shouldn't be too much of a drone noise while eating up the miles. I just wonder what the driving experience will be like.…
Powerglide has already been used - and was a two speed transmission :)
If you like the rubber look but aren't doing it for budget reasons - another way to go about it is the RV8 facelift. Or just buy an RV8 convertible. I find that with some body colours, the rubber bumpers aren't bad if they are colour matched, and gets incredibly close to the RV8 look.... But that said, I'll be having…
I will say this - the prices the originals are going for nowadays makes RestoMod builds look like damn good value for money. They might not have the resale - but if you're planning on keeping it forever, a more usable car for what seems to be sensible prices in comparison!
It's amazing how that Honda FIT through all those gaps...
Exactly... my choice would be a resto-modded vintage Dodge Powerwagon. :)
I think that's the first time I've ever seen the thought "I'm gonna fookin' teach him a fookin' lesson" ACTUALLY result in teaching him a lesson.
I've flown to Saudi Arabia many times and I've said this would be the simple solution for a long time. Flights to and from Saudi are constantly late to leave the terminal because people are unhappy with their assigned seating mix. Simple solution is just to board the men at one end of the plane, the women at the other…
