In all fairness, this isn’t likely to be true for much longer. The Chinese have everything they need to do it, and perhaps more importantly, the desire.

I would bet he could do both, but I’d also expect he was more comfortable with metric. Also bear in mind in 1945, the US wasn’t the only country using imperial.

Your mom sounds like an awesome woman.

Way to go Ana! A first place finish, even at the lower levels, is incredibly impressive. And seventh in the standings is nothing to sneeze at either. That’s being consistently on pace, near the top.

Came hoping for small displacement V-12. I am disappoint.

If I wanted trans veteran news, I might read something more general, like a news source that was general. Or one that was focused on the intersection of trans issues and veteran issues. Oddly, I don’t come to my automotive blog looking for that kind of news.

WHY THE FUCK IS THIS ON THE FP OF JALOPNIK?

If Hitler could blame the Jews for ruining Germany, I’m sure we can pin the N word on the Danes.

Dat panel gap...

To answer in a slightly different vein than has been done already: The annual GDP of Houston was $449 billion in 2012. So consider that Houston is making more than $1 billion a day, meaning every day of lost productivity is roughly $1 billion that’s just gone. While not all of Houston is shut down, if even 1/5 of it…

So we finally got our scapegoat for the fabricated outrage. As the president dismantles the EPA, and we continue to ignore rolling coal, we can rest easy in the knowledge that the engineer who helped circumvent a moronic regulation is going to jail.

Not to mention that passenger diesels are a single digit percentage of diesel pollution in the US. Light trucks and industry aren’t held to the same standards, and wouldn’t you know it, they have bigger engines, and there’s more of them!

Yeah, cts 2.0t or at 2.0t. Audi A4 Avant can be found with a slushbox as well.

I’ve been saying for years that I want a tiny (like 2.4l) v12 gt. Like a smaller, v12 Hartley V8, shoved into something like an RX-8. Maybe lotus evora level Spartan interior. Individual throttle bodies for the heavenly v12 sound. Maybe 350 hp, and certainly not more than 500. A car to be experienced, not an umpteen…

1980 something Mercedes?

I was trying to find one of the allroads, because I see those quite often with the front deflated.

So, this assumes that the conveyor belt is runway sized (length, especially)? Wouldn’t it just run itself off the conveyor otherwise?

I don’t consider a Miata or toyobaru a muscle car. Honestly, it’s sad to me that the Solstice twins are gone, because fit and finish on them was... questionable. Giving them a half decent interior would have made for a more competitive car, methinks (and they already sold well enough, if memory serves)

I can’t imagine that it’s more complex than a modern adaptive suspension system. And apparently it actually works (looking at you Audi and BMW air ride systems).

This is going to sound dumb, but the answer is thermal performance. Consider the range of temperatures a modern car is expected to operate in: - 30F to 115F easily, up mountains, at elevation, etc. With liquid cooling, the medium you’re running over your engine is always the same: water with some ethylene glycol. With…
