All that, plus these are notorious for shitting their turbos (and timing belts iirc) right around this mileage marker. Without detailed maintenance logs showing the engine was properly maintained, I’d avoid this thing because there’s almost certainly a couple ticking time bombs just waiting to go off under that hood.

This was back when America was Great; don’t you get that!?!

The hero we need needs to strangle it in its crib before it’s released upon us and there’s nothing we can do about it!

This is the right take. I don’t know what everyone else is blabbering on about, but if some over-bloated Insecurity Wagon is struggling to achieve 60MPH in front of me while I’m trying to avoid being run over by all the other over-bloated Insecurity Wagons that have had the room to lumber up to a speed beyond the…

...with no evidence of leak damage from those T-tops.

Thank you for putting this into perspective. I have a hard time dealing with people who regurgitate that “X ultra-rich person donated millions to a cause” and that’s why they are propping them up as a philanthropist. 

1. Buy a fully loaded 4cyl auto

Yes. And they charge quite a bit for the crap they serve.

Fender, not finder

It’s the passenger side finder that’s misaligned, you can tell it was replaced because the color is off, the pinstripe is gone, and the molding doesn’t line up right.

I get why he wanted the 4WD in this project, but he was never going to achieve 24mpg with it and he should have known that.

Town Fair Tires will store your winter tires for you if you buy them from them. Obviously that only applies if you have a Town Fair in your vicinity, but I’m also sure they’re not the only ones to offer this service to their customers. Look for tire retailers in your area that do.

The PS is only 400W per the page, but you can option an 800W one for $60 iirc.

The time I experienced this it was a zip tie around the rubber hose to my fuel tank in my work van. My coworkers had jokes.

There’s a problem here in the US currently. That problem is the ubiquitousness of AWD in cars that have no business having AWD being sold to people who don’t know dick about AWD other than ‘durr-better traction in snow-durr’. That’s because this feature is sold to every Susan, Chad, and Karen as the end-all-be-all to…

There’s diminishing returns with batteries as they get bigger/heavier.

$18k for an 11yo Tacoma TuRD with 145,000 on the odo isn’t a good deal, never mind one with a salvage title. CP all day long!

tbh, it was tongue-in-cheek, but is technically possible (as long as you replace the first ‘battery’ with ‘power’ in my original comment) since I’ve done it. You connect jumpers from a jump pack to the terminals before removing them, then slip the new battery in and reconnect the still-powered terminals and remove the…

The GT350 was the better choice anyway. That isn’t to say the Viper isn’t cool af, but the GT350 is just that much better and has a backseat for the kiddos.
