If they had the 2.4 in them it probably ate 3 quarts of oil just sitting there.

The warranty starts from the in-service date. Which is when the original retail customer takes delivery.

Have you never visited an FCA dealership?

For the quarter, Ram sold 148,836 pickups, up 16%, compared with the Chevrolet Silverado, at 126,591, down 12.5%. Ford’s F-Series remained in front at 203,797, up 9%.

I’ve never named my cars. This always seems to surprise my non gear head friends, who seem to think that because I’m so passionate about cars that surely I must name then.

I used to work in the aluminum recovery area of a foundry. Subaru would scrap wheels just for a scuff. On several occasions we received over 20 tons on brand new BRZ wheels that they pulled off the cars at port. The ones my dad has on his Legacy though, those totally fell off the back of a truck... Honest...

Agreed. I had an internship at a company (OEM) that did cast aluminum wheels and now work in powertrain machining sand and die cast aluminum components. The fact that these wheels made it to paint, let alone through final inspection is almost unbelievable. 

They really missed the chance to find these wheels with holes and then charge more money for them as lightweight wheels. 

Pretty sure that isn’t a rumor. The story I’ve read stated his engine was over the cubic inch limit at the time. They said it was over the limit due to expansion from heat. Petty was reported to say that they could bring the car to Alaska and it wouldn’t cool down enough.

Never would have...400ci...and nitrous according to everyone who knew something.

“Tons of pounds of dirt have been...”

Put a big “free Cargo” come and get it curb alert on craig’s list and that ship will be stripped bare in hours.

I figure it’s a college student. Traffic lights of any sort attract drunk college kids like moths to a flame.

Sounds like the mastermind of a criminal operation to me 

Check you local CL listings, Lawrence. This thing will be in someone’s home bar very soon.

How else are you supposed to play red light green light properly??!

Maserati Biturbo: the car you buy if you want to make a YouTube car restoration series that never ends. Part 167: fixing what we fixed in parts 57, 88, and 123. Next episode: fixing what we fixed three years ago in part 15, last year in part 110, and three weeks ago in part 155.

I’m so proud of Hyundai. In a short period of time they went from being the brand known for cheap cars and long warranties to taking Ferrari on at their own game. This is the kind of success story they’ll be teaching in business classes for decades.
