Yo! This is me and my life RIGHT NOW. I sold my Roush Mustang, and got my M2 license this year, and got into riding motorcycles on a whim. It’s been a season now and I’m gleefully riding a Triumph Thruxton R. I had been riding it nearly every single day up until the last week where we finally got snow here in…

Kinda like it, but mostly hate it.

My Thruxton R agrees.

Baby Jesus ultimate hatch back isn’t cheap.

I have a ‘16 RS, July/August build that year. . 14k on it, full bolt-on with Mountune parts. Daily driven, never tracked or raced about. I haven’t yet had coolant loss and misfires, but for a long time I have had smoke at idle that comes and goes. I’ve been told that it could be slight coolant leaking or oil from the…

Honestly how the heck is this crap even news anymore. Everybody and I mean EVERYBODY. Takes a Mustang GT and straps the SAME EXACT Roush TVS blower on them that Ford Racing sells and warranties and acts like they’ve created something original. Kinda makes me not at all wish having a Mustang.

well it’s kind of dopey since SVT, Team RS, FPV and Ford Racing were all rolled together instead of being seperate to give us what is now known as “Ford Performance” and even have new cars billed as being under the Ford Performance banner such as the ST’s (which were SVT in the US, and Team RS in the UK) the Focus RS…

cannot upvote this enough. New rider here on a Triumph and I just am not anything like the “harley culture” that I think they’re clowns.

Exactly. I just bought a Triumph Bonneville Street Scrambler, and it’s so freakin’ sublime that I already envision myself tossing more off-road capable tires on it and getting a Thruxton R to pair with it.

despite having the same wheel and tire sizes, tire brands, all suspension and brake components as well as engines and transmissions?

You realize that Firebirds were basically badge engineered 100% from the third generation on, right?

they were referring to the 3rd gens with 305s

3200 wasn’t heavy for then and is lightweight now. Hell the 1982 Camaro and 2002 Camaro are the same weight, both around 3200.

and regardless of the performance this is still a Mercury.

Meh. For the money, a Chevrolet SS is a far superior car, and isn’t from the end of the garbage era of Ford.

Funny as I read this I am less than 48 hours from taking my riders safety course. I have never ridden a “real” motorcycle. Only dirtbikes and that was as a kid, 20 years ago. Hell I’ve only ridden a bicycle once in the last decade. That said I’ve invested $100 in riding boots, $120 in knee guards and gloves, a…

looks like the outgoing MkIII Focus and the current Scirocco had a baby while the next gen Fiesta and current gen Golf watched.

I started off reading this getting hella triggered. lol. Then at the end I was like HELL YEAH, GIRL POWER!

last season - 2002 high
this season - 1460 high. :-(

Intrigue - W-Body (Grand Prix, Monte Carlo, Impala, Regal)
Alero - N-Body (Grand Am, earlier Cutlass, Malibu)

W-Bodies in most could have the Supercharged 3800 Series II/III @ 240hp and were a suberb front drive modding platform at the time. They would be full leather, head up display, and was a large midsize.

The…

used 2016 Focus RS. Problem solved, forever.
