I don’t think this is accurate anymore. In the F150, everything I’ve read has said the Ecoboost engines are way better to tow with than the 5.0 as they make max torque much lower.

Towing double trailers is legal in many states, as long as the second trailer is attached to the first trailer, not a car sitting on the first trailer.
Yeah if the travel trailer had been hitched to the car TRAILER, then it would have been legal (pending any license requirements in California). But here they have the travel trailer attached the SUV, which is strapped to the trailer, with only two straps.
No they’re just wearing headsets, not helmets. You can see the guys hair.
Well I mean they’re not wearing helmets. I don’t think I’d drive much faster than that without some more safety gear.
That’s a totally different application though. Generators aren’t concerned about taking up passenger/cargo room, and we all know diesel in cars is pretty much never coming back. Not too mention the vibration differences between a diesel piston engine and a gasoline rotary.
You can however build a fully electric one.
There’s been some people who have done it, but I’m pretty sure you have to cut some sheet metal to expand into the trunk area. The SW20 requires no modifications to the chassis.
Coming from the Miata world, that is pretty cheap to have someone swap an engine for you. Most swaps will cost at least $15,000 to have someone else do it. $7,000-8,000 DIY.
Ahh got it. Yeah if you’re going big turbo, then the 3VZ block makes sense. I’m a big fan of V6 MR2's, I’m just partial to the 2GR for the NA power.
It’s not that expensive as far as engine swaps go. Rat2 Motorsports in Washington will do the swap for you, including an engine, for $7000.
Yes it does, and it is the far superior V6 choice for a MR2.
Should’ve went 2GR for not much more money and almost 100 extra horses.
It looks like it would cut down the opening size if they went with struts. The goose-neck hinges allow them to maximize the opening.
Other than repairs, I don’t see why any of those things can’t be online. Or order online and pickup some where for parts you need right now.
Well in Idaho they can legally treat a stop sign as a yield and a light as a stop sign. Plus I’ve known a few people who were hit by cars while biking. It has always been the cars fault as the car violated some traffic law.
Tesla tried the battery swapping thing. They even had one open halfway between LA and SF just off I-5. Almost no one used it, so they shut it down and focused on building more superchargers.
Raph, you should read your fellow coworkers articles more often.
It means you get your new car financed, plus the amount you still owed on the old car.
That image is so pixelated I can’t tell if it’s David Tennant or an alien.
