The canola is just a cheap backup oil in case we run out of one of the others, or want something cheap to oil the grill, etc. Before we know it, the bottle gets old and wife wants a new bottle, so i get to retire the old bottle to the chainsaw.  Win-win.

Been using expired canola oil for years as bar & chain oil.

1st Gear: another example of how geurilla marketing can trump actual facts and science...

That's Ford's secret recipe.

Ref: bullying

The oil dilution comes from people babying the engine, not running it long enough or hot enough.  Drive it like you stole it and the engine will be just fine.  If you putt-putt three miles back and forth to work with it, though, you'll have issues.  Run it hard and hot!

125hp/ton seems to be the standard.

As well, GM was working with VM Motori back in the mid-2000s to bring a diesel to their Cadillac division. The 2008 recession put an end to that project. However, Stellantis (or whoever they were back then) picked up that diesel a few years later and dropped it into the Ram trucks.... yep, the EcoDiesel.

It wouldn’t be a complete list without “Bullitt”. Not the greatest chase scene by today’s standards, but still very visceral and raw. It has a number of foibles, but if you ignore those, the chase scene is entertaining.

That’s my point. This os going to happen one way or the other, so we might as well figure out the safest way to do it before it is forced upon us. There are ways to safeguard it, it just has to be thought out properly.  If we just blindly complain that it’s unfair, we will get screwed over eventually.

Maybe they need a proprietary port on the car that only law enforcement can access (with two-way communication so that the car owner can see exactly who is accessing it, as well as their credentials).

The Maverick is bigger than the first-gen Dakota ('87-'93), which was the first “mid-size” truck.

Is this to make up for their bed sides that collapse if you put a shell on them?

Not a cheap car, but a car that was cheap to run. 2002 Accord four-cylinder 5-spd manual. Paid $19k for it new, then drove it for 19 years. 34-35mpg, worst mpg was 29mpg in subzero commute, best was 39mpg driving 80mph down OK turnpike and I-35, loaded with luggage and A/C cranked up.

Technically, glass is a liquid. It just has a really high viscosity.

LED lights stuck into headlight housings meant for halogen bulbs.

And skinny tired are better than fat tires 

Then why not get rid of the Chicken Tax?

Ram once said, when asked why they don’t have a mid-size truck, that the Classic fills that niche. I guess they are thinking the mid-size truck should be an entry-level truck? I wholeheartedly disagree.

The Hemi is going away because it does not meet 2025 emissions standards.  They've known about this for years.
