Was the trans Toyota or Aisin? Do people realize that damn near everything that fails in the car is made by a supplier?

I’ll never get this after working in applications and quality engineer positions...they just walk in and design crazy new shit with no long term refinement?

When I was 15, my dad brought home a Ford-owned M-plate 1992 Acura Legend with a six speed manual. I could barely get it moving.

My 13MY Fusion had the same powertrain as the Fiesta ST. A co-worker about to lease a Camaro did OK trying to learn to drive it one day at lunch. He still went automatic (!).

Use the e-brake.

British accents are only cool when they come from a black woman.

“The modern proliferation of downsized turbo engines that save gas at low RPM and guzzle it at high speed is great evidence of what T&E calls “cycle bypassing.””

Rock turned to shit. Country turned into pop music. This rap shit is the only original new music. I bounce between this new rap shit and Hank, Willie, Merle and George. Yee haw, gangstas.

Standing in my kitchen NW of DTW one night with a beer, I heard a loud plane coming up...peeked out, thinking 747 with the angle I was viewing. It went right over the house and sounded nothing like the Delta 747s I’m used to hearing. Looked out the back door to see high mounted wings...thought it was a C-5. Flight…

$3500 on a bike was impressive in 1997. Now, it’s pretty much entry level.

I guess you didn’t skip the 5pm free crack give-away last night.

Rocket III!

I love my V-4 Honda Magna!

An AWD ST would be perfect. I don’t need RS for a DD. My 15MY SHO is awesome as a DD and it showed me that AWD is awesome in all seasons. My 0-60 time is the same dry or wet at 5.2 seconds.

Funny you mention the Ford connection...before I even read that I noticed a lot of 17MY Ford GT in that design.

Did your daughter get tired of driving it? ;)

Why not Flex Limited EcoBoost? Hauls a shit load and is VERY “snappy”...but, can only take a 40" wide sheet laying flat.

Needs an LS7 swap.

Huh? They were not Diesel engines...

F anything with a Roush logo.
