and there is something to be said for such a long model run :

I wonder what regulations keep the new (“new” from 2015) NP300

Jokes aside. this really gets under my skin too.

your note is so damn to the point, straightforward, and logical,

I saw one just yesterday. it looked like it hadn’t moved in many months, possibly more than a year. I think this type of vehicle continues to roll on only where spare parts are abundant. as in look into a farmers field and find spare parts abundant. They don’t look particularly well engineered.

nice.. but that’s front wheel drive, cracked windshield, and broken speedo.

hey I am TOTALLY for your specific wild and crazy plan

David, I’m all for wacky adventures.

Literally like like stirring a dildo in a jar of mayonnaise, it has no redeeming qualities.

I had an ex gf like that.. went we started out together, I noticed her car had 25k miles and never once had an oil change... sludge city

if it wasn’t a biblical hail/flood/frog storm,

ah.. now it all makes so much more sense. thanks for that. I was wondering if recreational users were all dumping the snowmobiles after so few years. 

I was talking with a snowmobile backcountry ski company last year, and they were telling me that with their usage, the engines last only max 3 to 4 years. Then they just dump the whole snowmobile out behind their shop and start anew. sounded plenty wasteful to me.

so are snowmobiles the last unregulated engines in the US?

I am pretty sure the Peugeot 5008 I recently rented had a toggle to super minimal cluster mode..

I am guessing redline is seen several times a day? ( can’t imagine otherwise on that engine). but it’s pretty astounding that Toyota was able to produce an engine that lasts 277k miles without being opened up, AND it’s a high performance machine of legend...

assholes, assholes everywhere.

I value not having to refuel so frequently as a big advantage.

so say you like to hike or ride a bike,
