I agree that most people that buy trucks don’t need the full capability. Fingers crossed that automakers are forced to start selling small fuel efficient trucks as well as big trucks to bring the fuel economy numbers up

I don’t feel like doing the math, but I wonder what the max fuel economy possible is for a truck. Obviously, you can’t sacrifice performance, so the weight can only drop so far, and the engine needs to be big enough to pull a loaded trailer up a hill, meaning that, unloaded, that engine is going use more fuel than…

How much do new rims cost? Cus that is bent

It only looks like a Flying Spur from the front corner. Even then, the roof line reminds me more of the current Taurus than the Bentley. The side view is is hardly mistakable for the Bentely, and the rear is completely different. I think someone is just jealous.

For all the people saying that the headlights are too similar to Audi's, this angle is distinctly Ford/Lincoln. (MKS, Mustang, etc.)

I am almost as excited about this as the new GT, only because Lincoln is finally awake and this might just earn their keep.

When we said that we wanted a Mustang-based Lincoln, we didn't mean we wanted an overpriced Mustang called "Black Label"

If it seems too good to be true, it probably is. I had a 1987 Conquest that I bought for $700 as my only project car to date, I got it put together to the point that it was driveable, plated it, took it a mile up the road to fill up with gas. On the way home, the oil pump chain tensioner loosened up because the PO had…

Nobody said anything about it being a problem, it is still debt.

Credit is how much people trust you to pay back, and debt is how much you actually have to pay back. I get what you mean, because a credit card balance is not considered debt until you fail to pay it when it comes due.... but you still owe them money.

"Guess what, that lack of debt is going to bite you in the ass when it comes to getting a loan or lease."

I hate it when drivers like this have cool cars.

It wasn't developed for transportation, but it was developed in the military and has seen extensive use in many vehicles...

That story was on Jalopnik at least a year ago. That is what happens when you try to use a forklift to lift a truck off of a trailer without unfastening the straps holding the wheels down.

I try to do as much of my own work as possible, because I love doing it. I am a computer engineer and sit in a office all day everyday, but nothing makes me happier than getting my hands greasy. In fact, when I was renting a house, I made the landlord cross out the clause about not doing automotive maintenance on the…

You know you have made it when you have girls willing to sit in the back of your truck in the cold just to see you run over a car with said truck. Most girls I know, if they had been remotely interested, would have bailed when the saturn failed to show up the first time.

I was trying to track if the driver was travelling at or near the speed of traffic. I don't want to get a point for passing a grandma or a hypermiler, but I do want to add a point for passing everyone that has participated in a zipper merge to cut in line.

The MI registration for my wife's caliber r/t says "Dodge station wagon"

I agree it needs some fine tuning. That case could be solved by keeping track of how much your speed has changed recently.

Are you related to Eeyore by any chance? (Eeyore is by far my favorite fictional character of all time)
