Except in a Boxer configuration.

Any plea would likely have ruled out a civil lawsuit. The lenient offer is standard bullshit. The possible worst outcome is often scary enough for regular folks to just plea it out. Plus the cost of a trial like this is ridiculous.

I think 400 is high. Focus RS power, with the same drivetrain would be nice. Direct injection should solve the detonation issues.

It is worded a little odd. My read is DI, yes. Deactivation and leaner combustion, on some. Hybrid, gross.

Subaru also promises direct-injection on all engines, as well as cylinder deactivation and leaner combustion by 2016, with plans for its first plug-in hybrid model to show up in 2018.

You are missing something. If he can file as John Doe, and sue her, Lydia Chlamydia, he gets to put that shit on record. Nothing like the timeless gift of a permanent court record that says she is crazy enough to intentionally give you an STI. And it would effect her credit if he got a judgment and she refused to pay.

Covered in ultra suede..... Wasn’t there an article about suede?

The wheels move, so you can go on and off the tracks at will.

I think people are doing the math wrong, or at least writing it wrong. The guy is asking for 20k per game, 8 games a season. That is 160k per year. 10 years, 1.6 million. A lot but not insane money.

Pretty sure the Merc has a high capacity. The Cayenne used to have 7700lbs, and I anticipate still does. The RR is 7700 as well. The Caddy? 8300. So it is not like people need to go with the Caddy just to tow.

The margins for a 96k Escalade must be insane. Because, as indicated, it is mostly a suburban in fancy dress.

That would never happen. VW could donate $1 Million to every current Senator and Rep for less than a billion. And they likely will.

This might be a new one, might not be. Amazon sells stiff plastic brushes that can be quickly and easily connected to a cordless drill. While you may not want to use a fancy dewalt for this, the $80 ryobi with two batteries on sale is gonna slaughter that shower in 20 minutes.

No picture but get a first gen avalanche. Crew cab short bed one day, and two seater with long bed the next. Plus you can get them super cheap, and since the engines are super basic, as is the rest of the suburban parts on it, it is cheap and easy to repair.

Add a second seat, minimal extra weight, and bring it to market at less than 200lb, and with 200hp for less than 30k.

Fuck that. Get the In-Vince-Able Sandwich. A lb of meat, cheese, on a large loaf of bread with all the fixins. $16 dollars. Or $10 with a silver coin.

I was not on this road trip, but two roommates were. Both have confirmed the details.

Agreed. The guy has a 92 corsica. He is likely not rolling in cash. If the mechanic had said, listen, your rusted shitbox is can’t be on the road, the guy would have taken it elsewhere, or driven without an inspection.

Absolutely. Maybe in a regular car, but high performance machines should be treated as such. My car is on a severe duty cycle and I barely drive it. Some cars like some oils better, mine like Rotella T6 (turbo motor). In the past, on NA engines, Mobil 1 Full Syn. At 1000, and every 3-5000 after that. On a fancy super…

I agree, but to go further, Audi was a valued and significant brand before the R8. Acura strikes me as a failing and falling luxury. I think Honda knows this, otherwise, why the hell would they let Honda sell the Pilot Super Platinum Elite which is just a slightly uglier MDX for $10k less.
