It was certainly one of the first to do that. I wonder how many modern CUV’s and crossovers fall into a light truck classification.

Love the smell of race gas - try it in your weedwacker, it makes chores more fun.

I remember a co-worker’s 1.9 TDI Jetta had the intake nearly plugged solid with carbon buildup from the EGR, maybe VW tried this software method to increase reliability? If so will using more EGR cause carbon issues on the 2.0’s also?

I won’t be there, so how about the 50’s playlist that seems to be at every car show?

I’ll forever be sitting in traffic wondering if I’ve got a sticky caliper

In high school the first thing I did when borrowing Dad’s 81 Chevy pickup was flip the air cleaner lid over so I could hear that 350/quadrajet go Whoooooomp when the secondaries opened.

We used to pull the hubcaps off a buddy’s Buick Century and throw a few beer bottle caps inside, always made a for a nice rattle at low speeds.

If you read the linked Automotive News article, this isn’t about cutting american jobs to make a car elsewhere, it’s about shuffling FCA production around to produce higher profit margin SUV’s and Trucks at more US plants so they can pay those American workers the higher wages they are demanding.

Did you end up on the Hertz Rental configurator?

Ram Promaster City

I’m going to hold out until they offer it with a CVT

Needs to turn the tail lights blue or orange so it looks more like a jet afterburner

VW Tiguan, Jaguar F-Pace, Infiniti Q30, and now this? Too many Crossovers for a Monday (or any day for that matter).

I have it’s rusty cousin here in IL.

I towed home a Red 92 IROC R/T with similar patina to this car a few weeks ago.

I haven’t had to work on it much yet, but tons of room underhood on our ‘13 Dart with 1.4 turbo.

By their nature a diesel should outlast a gasoline engine. Diesel fuel has lubricating properties where gasoline is more of a solvent. Gasoline will wash the oil off the cylinder walls of an engine and dilute the oil causing increased wear. Diesel does a much better job of helping to keep things lubricated.

“Spirit of Ecstasy Rotary Controller” sounds like something that would be delivered in more discreet packaging than this.

I met one of the guys out there (Lincoln, NE) when I sold him a water/air intercooler I pulled of an XR4TI to be used on a Turbo-Coupe.
