Wait, I'm confused... Group Lotus, are they the bunch of self-important bastards trading under the long and storied Lotus name whilst pissing on Colin Chapman's grave? or are they the ones running a pseudo-legitimate F1 garage founded on a 20 year old backdoor loophole?

Doesn't look like the same "frontal lobotomy" style impaling, but that was the first thing I thought of as well.

Because most of them end up in a similar state to mine; stuck in a corner, non-running, needing completely re-wired... I guess that's where the "completely new internals" come in, which is what I have in mind just as soon as I finish my Deck, and the baseboard trim, and my sister's motorcycle, and my sandrail.

If you're looking for a belated Mothers Day gift I think you're headed in the wrong direction.

Christmas presents!

The term "upgrade" has gotten very watered down as of late.

Aaaah, so THAT's why we didn't have in-car cameras during 70's auto racing.

Way to go $kaycog!

Toyota pickups had a wide variety of decal/stripe packages in the '80s... I dunno if they were the 'best', but they were pretty 'Rad' at the time.

I would hate to be killed in a '55 Nomad... Though I would die happy, a freshly deceased driver would surely foreshadow imminent doom for the timeless classic. I'd hate that.

And here I thought the trailer side skirt trend as of late was to improve aerodynamics and fuel economy... #miatastoppers

Absolutely. It's got the convenience of a truck for trips to the home improvement store, respectable commuting mileage and the capability to tow more than a half ton ever should.

With the Powerstroke probably 15-17, the 5.9 Cummins does slightly better. 'course it's all hear-say, so feel free to call me a liar, but my closest friends haul trailers back and forth across the Oregon Cascades and those are the numbers they report from their F250 and Ram 2500 4x4s.

With today's fully tier-2 compliant diesel engines you also get 6-10 fewer MPG than the same rig 7 years ago, so today that would take a lot of towing miles to amortize. However, even paying new truck prices for a pre-Tier 2 diesel it would take less than 4000 towing miles to make up the difference in initial cost.

Towing performance is impressive for a V6 gas rig, but that's horrible mileage. I'm curious how much worse the 4x4 would be, it's nice they can tow that much with a half ton but some of us still use our trucks for things other than pounding pavement... Which is what Ford can do with their new truck since any 7 year…

I didn't know Ferrari made jets.

No... there are just a LOT of Skylines in the GT series. All the cars came straight off master car lists for GT4 and GT5.

And, of course, here's the list of top driven cars in Gran Turismo:
