I would like to say a 2015 car that has been made catless, and is heavily modified engine wise, passes all ECU emissions testing and a lil sniffer. Why? Thanks to a 3" piece of metal. That’s all it takes to defeat your “easier faster standardized way” it actually makes cheating the system, easier (rediculously so)…

Nobody cares about your political opinion. It’s jalopnik. Not politalnik. This isn’t a place to argue. Everybody is blah blah.

Well I guess it’s time to sell my FoST before the awesome WRX (but better, yet worse now AWD) of Ford gets washed out. Who’s ready for a MKZ ST.

You’re more right than you should be able to be, there is a silent level of understanding once you’ve actually “been there” “done that”.

Age doesn’t matter in war, at the age of 25 you’re 4 years away from the enlistment cutoff.

So why did you join the armed forces? Wanted to be a rescue guy? Joined the wrong branch, should’ve gone Coastie (lot harder training) or National Guard. People go AF cause it’s “easy” “cushy” “smart guys” so you get these guys without the mentality to conduct war for the free stuff, or a genuine willingness to serve…

Oh the cops around here don’t speed, they go five under and watch nobody pass them. And then do the speed limit down to the digit, I think 5 over is alright. I’ve never been pulled for 5 over, knock on wood, but I don’t do 5 over in the city. I’m in a rural area.

That’s a hell of a job! I guess it’s a good time for you to leave, I’m not gonna be able to read Jalopnik as I’m leaving for the military as a Combat Medic! So we both have new jobs!

I’m gonna disagree, my buddy’s e46 325i, we’ve replaced nearly every part on that car. And it fricken sucks to work on. Least there’s a big cap that makes it easy to put oil in every other week. I’ve tore that entire motor down, rebuilt it and did everything I can. It constantly breaks down, it’s nearly a brand new…

Love the work you do but for a bit of enlightenment, cause as a journalist learning is everything. Government hacking? They created it, they created the internet, or rather contracted people to create it. Government has been using networks since the 40's and it everything really got rolling in the 60's. The level of…

I get about 63mpg on my Yamaha R3 on my conservative tune and a good 14mpg on my 06'STi (lots of go fast parts killed my MPG), 11mpg on my 05' Mustang cause boost is life and boost kills MPG.

Ah my friend has a bolt ons GXP and it is an amazing car. He gapped my Mustang GT, so we swapped keys and then I gapped my GT.
My GT is now whippled and until I can get some drag radials it’s a fairly close race, I tend to pull on him after 70mph when I can get into 3rd gear but before that it’s neck and neck.

If you’re worried about Fords capability to commit or not cheat, look at baja, WRC, FIA GRC, drag, NASCAR, V8 Supercar (Australian series), Touring, Formula Drift, Cup racing. (I bet they’ve cheated in nearly all of those aside from WRC and GRC, just not getting caught. Like every team ever)

Of course they have no chance in LMP1, but if Ford so desired they could be an extremely competitive competitor.

If I see a car roll up to fire trucks that are slanted to block traffic, drive around the truck with inches to spare rolling to my line? To them I can say

Some fire depts can get into cars without busting the window, but not everytime and most for some odd reason don’t have the tool. Mine does, and we get keys out of cars for free. Getting dogs out of hot cars? We’ve done it, and we try not to bust windows if we don’t have to, but that dog can and does feel, and your…

Yep, I’m a firefighter and if there if you park infront of my hydrant and I need water like, now, to save either a structure and property and much more prioritized, people or animals. Sorry about your car, you know better than to park there. We are sorry, though, we don’t want to. We have to. And before putting the…

OkayI’ll take the troll bait. You said “their own” as in it’s their own wreck just as you said but it really has a much bigger perspective than that. I know your veiny keyboard warrior fingers must insult everybody who does not agree with you, and that attitude is shit. I hate dealing with people like you in wrecks…

Oh they were exponentially less strict, they’ve become much more strict rather rapidly in the past 20 years.

Every take a trip to the tail of the dragon?
