Fitch is kind of like the Chrysler of ratings agencies. Yeah you could listen to them, but there are a lot of better choices out there.

Tom,

Holden is GM...

Well, lame. I’ll leave that one for their suggestion box.

My guess (could be way off) on this one is that the new engine is the same block as the the gen 5 V6 that is in the Silverado. Just like Chevy used to make a destoked 4.8 liter V8, this could be a destoked 4.3 liter V6

What gets that distinction today?

Samurai is a cool little car but I would hardly describe it as tough as nails. Frames and axles bend pretty easily on those little trucks

I wish I had 100hp... 68hp in my Rover is still plenty fun though

OK so outside of something like a 60's Bronco (which if you own one means you are unquestionably cool) what car doesn’t say something bad about a person?

in defense of the serpentine - it would be far more effective against an expert archer than a sniper

As an aside Matt Millen will always be the worst GM ever.

This is ridiculous. Sam Hinkie accomplished everything he said he would do in the years that he was GM. If a GM makes winning a priority and they win we celebrate them. Hinkie made losing a priority - shouldn’t we celebrate that we he successful in accomplishing this?

Had that on a Windstar when I was a kid, it was the coolest Windstar.

If you could get the seller down to $1500 and then sell the wheels (which I’m assuming are worth something but I really know nothing about wheels) and replace with steelies it may be an excellent candidate for LeMons

Its fun to read old message boards from the early naughts on the TTB, basically everybody hated it and thought it was the worst thing ever put on a car. Fast forward to today and people realize that its actually a really good axle for a lot of off road situations. I hope if Ford ever brings the Bronco back that they…

2.7 liter twin turbo? Must be the new F-150 engine.

Why can’t they just build completely new tunnels? the existing ones are 97 years old and they could use the additional tunnels anyway.

So question to people who know more about this than I do. The F-35 was designed to be 3 planes that looked like 1 plane, A, B, and C. It seems the design constraints posed by the B variant have been the cause of the issues holding the platform back. Would it have made more sense to scrap the F-35B variant and build…

But really the best comparison is not the Fusion Sport. Its going to be the new 2017 MKZ. Lets look at the specs: 400HP, FWD, 3800 lbs, under 40k. Optional Focus RS derived AWD for an extra 3 grand if you want it - if only it came with a stick.

reminded me of this
