Yamaha Tenere 700 MSRP $9999, same kind of fun as an old stand up

This is some Acela corridor bullshit for driving on gravel; when dry- look for dust, when wet- slow down because it’s greasy. For the 8 weeks that the corn is tall, change your driving habits. It ain’t rocket surgery. P.S. If you’re riding a Hog 2 up on gravel through corn country before harvest without helmets, or

North TX, manual, reliable, rare, and cheap? Brother, you don’t want a dune buggy, you NEED one!

The answer is simple: Saab 9000, procuring a good example is not.

This might be the first winner of the Lindsey Lohan NPOCP: everybody wants to do it but nobody wants to deal with the aftermath.

Worth? Hard to say, cost of ownership on a 15 year old German exec sedan is the factor to factor. That said, given the cost of some common repairs on these, fresh tires are lipstick on a pig. I’d take an E32 740i over one of these if I had to choose, and I’d pay in the $4k range for one with a service history. 

Hunter Biden crack pipe bender, but I still kinda want it. 

Now playing

I mean the collar, part #19 on the chart in this video at 0:44.. It’s weak link in the chain by design. If you’re lucky, and the guy in the video wasn’t, that’s what gave out- not the Angle gear.

I thought you just needed to get one car running reliably for under $600. An XC70 will DD in FWD as that’s what it’s doing most of the time anyway. Consider that you could drive it that way and repair the AWD when time/money permit. Rod knock isn’t necessarily terminal in these either BTW- I’d clean the shit out of

Linked the part, but that’s not a diagnosis- could be exactly what I describe as the symptoms are identical.

There is a splined collar that connects the trans to the angle gear, common point of failure...that’s what went on mine. One could remove it and run FWD. I speak from some experience here.

I’d like a little more detail on the XC70, what exactly is wrong with the motor? The AWD is possibly a splined collar which strips out on these and is an $80 part and 1/2 day wrench. 

‘72 Dino 246 GTS, he sold it to re-do the kitchen- we were just giving him shit about it last night.

A decent airport tug would also fit, the rub comes when you start counting cargo space, cupholders, and seatbelts.

Nothing that will readily tow 6000# will fit where an S2000 just barley fits. That said, you’re getting a Yukon or Land Cruiser. Newer one with load leveling suspension a plus. I’d check Hertz sales in your area for the former.

It would be perfect back here-

Sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo you want a Land Cruiser

This, criticizing a pilot for an engine out landing on take off is telling- he’s not the worst pilot, but you might be the worst journalist.
