It’s an actual cash value of $500, and if the money goes to make it crazier, they usually give you a pass.. As long as the extra money isn’t for go-fast bits, the sky is almost the limit.

Passs the Dutchie ‘pon the left hand side...

Hey, it IS the Cadillac of minivans..

The very first time it’s used in earnest, it’s saved far more than the cost of the program.

No way could that handle something like this:

We don’t use these here for 3 reasons:

I’ve personally used Canadian hockey pucks as engine mounts, but am American. 😂

You know who I feel bad for? The poor schlub that has to tow that thing. Can you imagine how much it weighs now?

Nope, totally sane response to a huge cluster-cuss. You watch, 3 days after it opens for traffic, the big earthquake will hit and it’ll collapse.

What an amazing and wonderful world when a Buick is recommended on Jalopnik. :)

So, how do they keep rubber tires from exploding at that speed? Are they special one-off prototype tires or something?

FYI, the bugs in the Journey were ironed out for the 2012 model on up. They have bigger brakes, LED tails, 3 rows of good seats, bluetooth, touch screens, multi-zone cimate control, and the pentastar. We’ve had our for 5 years with nothing wrong with it except my fat ass breaking the plastic off the passenger seat…

I wonder how much of this has to to with electric rates in CA. When I lived there 10 years ago, I was paying 22 c / kwh for the first 500kwh, then 33c/kwh after that. The cost of electricity across much of CA is ridiculous.

I live in the pacific NW, and it’s still worth it. no real penalty for having a drop top anymore, it’s quiet with it up, and you get rear windows that roll down (they don’t in the coupe).

So funny, I have a 2015 Mustang vert and LOVE it, and I have general pants-tightening for this too. Must be hard wired into me..

If you’re replacing them with poly, you leave the sleeve.

Watching the downhill section made my palms sweaty. That’s crazy...

Both. it’s the same thing. The 2 pistons share a common journal in a v12, so in terms of firing order, it’s like to I6's connected to the same crank. In 60 degree v6's, there’s a 60 degree split between shared pins, and in a 90 degree v6, there’s a 30 degree splay, so that the firing is always 120degrees apart.

I also will reply to help you drive clicks. We had a rogue for work, had. It, um, didn’t make it in the delivery business.

Woah, that side view looks like a Pontiac G8 (a newer version of). That’s pretty sweet.
