Wait, doesn't Scion already do this EVERYWHERE in the U.S.? Or am I completely mistaken? I thought they at least told their dealers "no mark ups!" or something.

As a passenger, I absolutely HATE when people insist on trying to converse with me and blast the radio. If I have to yell, you're doing it wrong. I don't care how dope you think your stereo is, and it's usually only people with some kind of stereo mod. I WILL turn it down to hear you, damn your "rules". Otherwise,…

I would much rather buy directly from the manufacturer. Saves tons of money for me. Also, I don't do extended warranties. Luckily, and I know this doesn't apply to everyone, I can fix most issues myself. As someone who works at a dealership with a parts department that actively makes an effort to rip off customers, I…

Since my career has something to do with driving, I've started making a real effort to not drink any more than maybe 1 beer per outing. A beer generally lasts longer for me than a cocktail, except a martini, but that gets me sloshed since it's like 4 shots of vodka. And I try not to leave until I feel it has worn off.…

It's okay, I don't really like Pink Floyd or Beetles. However, I do respect Beetle lovers because they are car lovers. They're weird, but we all have our quirks :) As for Pink Floyd, singles are good, but I can't remember the last time I actually listened to them nor will I make the effort to listen to them now.

Ask Abercrombie how they're doing since their owner said they don't market to ugly or fat people. Only the cool kids. Their stock went up the day he made those remarks, but I'm not sure since then. I can just say I'm not buying anything there, but then I never have. But if I had kids in their demographic, I sure as…

Arite, let me put it another way. The only way I would actually want this car is if it got rid of the wheels. I don't mean the orange and got another color. No. I mean if this was a spaceship. That's it. This isn't a car. It's a spaceship. But as long as there are wheels on it, I'll pass. Not that I can actually…

I was able to talk myself into thinking the Veneno was okay, but this... I just CAN'T talk myself into this. Like, if this was a girl at the car, I couldn't drink enough to take one for the team. Just not happening.

All parts of that sound awesome. Please do that, then share it with all of us.

That is VERY awesome. I'm incredibly interested to see that motor and to see that truck in person. And to drive it, haha.

I want 6 cylinders in my truck, but not a V6. I want an inline 6, preferably diesel. I know. I'm just asking way too much. Oh wait, Ram comes with a Cummins? I'll take one, please.

An aluminum frame could do it. Take off all the stuff you don't need that a truck driver would and it can be done. Mike Ryan's Pikes Peak Freightliner weighs like 9000 lbs. somehow.

I want to do that so bad... Sure, my little 1.8T won't sound as awesome, but it WILL be just as much fun.

Calling that a "drift" is really a stretch.

Okay, I'm glad someone else noticed that, too. That was painful.

Awesome. So, what do you do? R&D? Or do you have that much access at a shop?

I don't think I can ever thank my dad enough for teaching me to drive stick first. I always enjoyed it and when I started working on semis, it became one of the single most useful skills I had. I came home after my first day and hugged him for it. It was completely worth those frustrating few hours I spent with him…

Since it doesn't sound like a Cummins (I might be wrong. All I usually hear from a Cummins is low end rumble and loud turbo spool, which is awesome.), I'm assuming it's a Volvo motor?

What the other guy said. The engine alone weighs between 2000 and 3000 lbs.

I really feel that it's mostly Americans that are looking for an excuse to prevent change. This country is so afraid of it. Is Europe this afraid of change and progress? I know they're the nanniest of nanny states, but what about change? I still work with old guys that hate using a computer to clock in and out instead…
