No it doesn’t. The latest Bradley IFV is pushing 40 tons w/o a 120mm gun. It also has unnecessary occupant/crew space for the MPF program.

Don’t tell me that it takes too long to develop any new weapons systems because of course it does but that’s mostly due to bureaucracy than it does with meeting a demand.

“Partial buys” is a misnomer. DoD vehicle contracts are usually awarded in phases. The headlines may read “Company X won the JLTV contract for 3000 production vehicles” when in reality they sign a contract with the Army for 100 vehicles, then a contract for 300 vehicles, then a contract for 75 vehicles, etc. At some…

Lexus started using the 8sp around 2007

He’s a tranny hunter?

Like Volvos these days

C6 auto. Shameful. It’s not fun unless that LS3 engine is screaming at 4000+ RPM especially with open exhaust and lower road speeds.

I’m not sure what a “tC” is, but you need more cylinders, bro.

I had past and current generation Escapes, past and current generation Edges, Explorers, Jeep Grand Cherokees, new Pathfinder, newer Highlander, Sequoia, late model Sorrento, and a Santa Fe. The Edge Titanium w/EB was my favorite while the Jeep was a close second. The handling and build quality of the 2015+ Edge…

And I’ve never owned a truck, wagon, SUV, CUV, 4 cylinder, or even a Ford but have considered buying a 2016+ Edge Sport. I was in a monthly car rental for 300+ days the past 5 years while working a job assignment out West for my company. They allowed us to expense CUVs/SUVs because we had to traverse light off-road…

Left window up. What a puss.

Nah, this is Obama’s & NATO’s fault. All of those anti-warm weather environmental policies.

Bruins definitely need the extra practice

And insurance companies keep issuing home owner’s policies. Raise everyone’s premiums.

so much fire!

A BMW would make the most hipster sense. And you could hold out your chest proudly to let everyone know you’re driving a sporty car with “near 50-50 weight distribution”. I mean, it’s the ultimate, bro! Just make sure a mechanic inspects the turn signals first.

They may “get it” when they’re driving in Canada. But plenty of Canadian snowbirds drive like schmucks in the left lane while wintering in Arizona.

Cocaine is a helluva drug. I never understood the love for these cars. Eastern Bloc style and ergonomics. Mainly for kids whom never owned anything with over 150 HP before. Then they could say “it’s got turbo and all-wheel drives, yo!”.
