Totally agree. Googled pontia aztek to see how it aged and saw this amazing thing.

NP - Wow! I bought a first model year 04 twin turbo Cayenne with 67k miles for $27k about 7 years ago. I will do it again. No doubt. We have put 100k miles on ours! Still the best driving vehicle we’ve ever own all around. It is down to 11mpg around town. Used to get 13. Even though the electronics beep incessantly my…

Very well done sir.  Big fan of your work.  Please keep writing.

I thought it was an odd location for the caliper too. My gut reaction was the caliper fail but it seems that is where they intended the rear caliper to be...

So what you are saying is ze-Germans over-engineered something? No. Way.

A reminder how clumsy Ronda was after Holly touched her...

I wonder what the level of difficulty is for yanking one of these. No experience.  I figure if it was around $7k I’d be down for the overhaul. Something about starting at 5 figures knowing I’m pulling an engine seems steep.  Sweet car though. Always loved these.

*Firebird? :-)

Don’t forget the me too movement

With strong internals (forged pistons, strong rods/crank) it is possible to be reliable at 100 hp per cylinder on pump gas. The Golf R and GTI are good to 400+ but the 1.8 TSI is not (different internals). The Focus RS is rated 375 hp. From what I understand they are reliably making 400. I run 400+ hp on my Subaru 4…

GT350 is my preference as well. Sounds as good or better.

We drove to Universal Orlando and were quoting Harry Potter the whole way. Our friends were not HP fans. When we said “swish and flick” they asked if we needed a restroom break!

Food Lion carries Lays All Dressed at least in SC. Having been to Canada and had the real thing these are closer than Voodoo flavor but both amazing. We have shared Lays All Dressed with many friends and inevitably the bag disappears but we always buy two.

Government cheese. Nice! Having owned mostly T-9 equipped (currently T-5) and one automatic. I can say the automatic is decent just like government cheese. Yes I’ve had both. My XR4Ti automatic would accelerate quickly and bark second gear. It was a riot and could do a decent little one wheel burnout. The shifter was…

Wow you should take off those rosey glasses regarding reliability. Blanket statements like that are cringeworthy. The cheap cars in particular have massive massive automatic transmissions issues very early in the life cycle. The CVT issues and control module failures eesh.

Yeah I love my Golf TSi but it is a manul. I think the automatic in the TSI is not a DSG. The DSG is a sweet transmission but would it last 10 years and 100k miles?  No I think not but nothing an extended warranty can’t cover.

Funny username.  Making light of reckless operation.  Interesting.

I had to shut off the video at the school zone. I’m nauseous.

MJ averaged the same number of blocks at Lebron. Jordan perfected the block from behind.  He was named defensive player of the year the same year he was MVP.  They’re in the same conversation but Jordan is the real King.
