Meh, it’s easy when the car is right for you. I dig Mustang and Dodge as well as GM has made it easy to stick with them since neither offer the combination of features I want.

Well with those dealers at least. I allowed my self the screwed over about 11 years ago and that was it for that dealer and I still let people know about the experience and try and steer them to dealers I’ve had a better experience with.

They will and in short order. The industry has geared up big time for electrification. What you seeing is ICE and EV swapping economies of scale. 

Man, I wish Dominion had a 70-dollar track day where you could run for as long as you want or VIR for that matter. 

Let see, in my limited experience VIR was the most fun but I’ve only been to a few - VIR, Dominion Raceway, Langley Speedway and Utah Motorsports Campus. Dominion is my home track though and it’s a pretty fun drive.

I hope to add Summit Point and the Roval at Charlotte as well as NCCAR one day as well.

lol, it’s probably a covert effort to abandon Palestinians outside the country - “Sorry bro, says here your passport has been revoked so no way we can let back you into Israel”

Its only anemic since people have embraced the absurd and for some reason everybody needs a sub 10 second car/truck/crossover that can accelerate to 60 in less than 2 seconds and tops out over 200 mph. On that count I agree with Chris Harris when he observed anything that generates 1g or greater in acceleration starts

They are in the process of putting more HOV lanes along I64 and adding another tunnel to the HRBT so around the bridge is perpetually in a traffic jam. Once you get out of VA Beach and past Hampton and Newport News the widened road really helps traffic out and one of the nice things about the HOV lanes, they can be

Man, they cited VA but no actual reasons to cite Va...

It wasn’t worth mentioning the left lane campers that think they are too important to move into the right or the bastards get bent and speed up when you go to pass on the right. Or the general lack of lawlessness. Red light runners plague the state like cockroaches

lol, I wouldn’t consider anything with over 350 net horsepower anemic. Nor something that cuts sub five second or faster 0-60 dashes and sub 13 second quarter mile times on the way to a 155 mph+ V-max. That’s just being jaded.

Owning an ICE vehicle in the future will be like owning a fine mechanical watch or hunting

lol, hemi purists are! 

Naw, unless your lumping Gen-X in there as well (which would be par for the course - Gen X considered geriatric Millennials by Boomers and Boomers by Millennials and Gen Z). Plenty of Gen-X guys still dig ICE but I suppose it depends at which end of the generation you’re talking to. Closer to the Millennial are the

The Avanti and the Checker cab seem like good candidates but I’m not onboard with the 928 (especially since I dream of the day when they add a short wheelbase two-door manual trans Panamera to the line-up - screw you guys it’s my dream!). The Saab also doesn’t sit right with me either, seems more like a hydrogen

One more harbinger of the end times!

Not everybody has a 'murican constitution where food has to be refrigerated immediately after going through a full on anti-bacterial and anti-viral treatment. We might be good when it comes to toxic levels of chemical additives but some people are just better in that regard when it comes to food that isn't immediately

Well Camaro still looks to be coming back as an EV moredoor sedan and Mustang at least will carry the torch until 2030ish something since Ford is saying their ICE program is good until 2040. 

There will always be a market out there. They might drive an EV crap box on the daily but somebody is going to cater to the market if for at least another 20 to 20 years. After that it will probably be so niche the only people buying ICE will have the sort of money laws don't apply to them anyway. 

And crap can the superior pentroof chamber in the T6? Hemi chambers are good for one thing and that’s putting extremely canted valves in a two-valve engine. Otherwise not much else unless minimizing the surface area of a chamber that is too large to begin with.

Now playing

Yeah, typical 80's stuff when it came to turbocharging at the time, Alain De Cadenet found it to be a better drive than the F40 IIRC

Speaking of here is the man himself in a 288 GTO.

lol, “turbo study”
