It's grounded to the ground track.
It's grounded to the ground track.
Sorry, a non-luxury-truck guy in the middle of show truck country tends to get a little defensive.
Well, as far as the Blackwood is concerned, I saw a bunch of them here when they were released ('02 to '03, since the economy here was rockin', just like everywhere else in the US at the time), then they sort of disappeared. I chalk that up to vanity truck buyers getting them on lease, then abandoning them.
Frankly, if I'm working all day, I'd rather do some yoga and then get a massage from my lady than rely on a seat vibrator (one of those situations where you get back two-fold what you give - give her a massage when you've got plenty of energy, and get your payback when you really need it :). When I'm doing yard work…
Don't get me wrong; ass massage is awesome in certain situations, but when I'm hauling crap to the landfill or green waste site, ass massage is the last thing on my mind.
That's exactly the type of truck I've decided I don't want or need.
I guess I'm more of a handling guy than anything else. HP and sharp-as-a-tack handling is more attractive to me than bragging rights. As I get older and more crotchety, I question how many of these people are using these Quad Cab pickups for pickup truck duty.
Torque is for more than towing (though I'm sure you know this). I'm under the assumption that people are actually using trucks for "truck stuff". You can look at my other post for my feelings on this issue... I just got done posting it, so I'm not going to reiterate the same rant again (I'm not trying to say…
The interesting thing to me is that as I get older and more financially secure, the thought of "I need to get a nice, new V8 truck before they become unavailable/unreasonable" is getting further from my priorities. Keeping in mind that I live in "nice truck" country, of course.
torque is the issue with 4-cylinders. they tend to go "square" with turbos... as in hp and tq being somewhat equal. with turbo 6 engines, it's seemingly easier to get a more torque- generous curve, which is the whole point of V8s.
Comin' at ya.
I'm guessing that it's due to the baggy wool pants. Ball sweat + scratchy wool = chafing.
Drama mask with Hogan 'stache FTW.
Your fellow font nerds have your back, bro.
Usually, those big brand badges are drilled and epoxied. It's the same reason my old WRX still has the Suby badge on the trunk, but not the "WRX" or "Impreza" badge.
Here's another fahkin' luxury item you may want to fahkin' invest your fahkin' money in.
"quality is job 1"...
Apropos of nothing, I saw a caravan of Camaros yesterday headed south on highway 75 (about 10-12 of them) and half were Hennesseys. Wonder if they were headed down to Houston.
That's not "well-hydrated" pee... that's "trying to beat a drug test" pee.
