Crown Corvair. Nothing says “wheee!” like a V8 in the back seat.
Trash talking strangers, and being trashed talked too is fun when it’s well timed, well intentioned, and funny. If I was playing a fighting game, and someone drops you and says “Banana peel MFer!”, I wouldn’t be upset. I’d struggle to breathe because that was a solid off the wall comment and be laughing hard.
This was in 2010, the car had 350k miles on it. Yes, yes they did.
It was a small shop that only did emissions testing. The parts shop was a couple hundred yards away. There was no check engine light on, but in California the test machines have a place to screw the cap on where it pressurizes itself and checks to make sure there is no leaks. That’s where it failed.

Not everyone surprisingly enough...

The Thunderbird around 1990 was available with a supercharged V6 or a V8. The V8 was the slow one.
Well, after that boom it was certainly Audi there.
The awesome part about the Dodge one is the way they tilt 90 degrees for towing.
Dodge actually has this covered in a phenominal way:
I’ve found my A-pillar actually creates a “dead angle” that coincides perfectly with some roads near my work to the point that the traveling speed I approach a stop sign and the normal traffic speed, a car can turn right from a side street, go down a block, and I’ll only see it once it gets surprisingly close. A Honda…
Bitch please. My Corvair can be stolen with it’s own dip stick.
I agree with this. When I had my Dakota I looked around and thought “This interior is plenty good enough for me.’ People will scream “The dash is hard plastics!” but I never feel the dash. I felt the wheel and the shift knob. I didn’t stroke the plastics that kept the wires out of the sun. Even with my Ram, the…
Yeah, what you want is a FWD front engine motorcycle.
The test driver looks like a typical late 80s Porsche driver, likely named Chad.
