I prefer the old one

That grey on red looks great.

Emergency crews are salary paid, so if they weren’t there watching for a fire, they’d be sitting at the station... getting the same pay.

I also doubt those IC engine fires happen when the vehicle is off, sitting by itself in a parking lot, or worse, someones home. 

Total time from getting from firehouse to fire and putting out the fire, rescuing the people inside the car, getting them sent to the hospital, and getting the car towed away is most definitely over an hour. Where do you live that they can do all this in less than an hour?

Even if it is 5 times less likely, this event had an impact 5 times greater than a normal car fire so the occurrence benefit gets wiped out.

Just got a delica myself!

You replaced your floorboards with an entire Disco?

I was in college in 2002 and I sold cars for Mitsubishi (arguably this was their glory years), and we sold the Montero Sport and full-sized Montero at the time. Both were fantastic, true SUVs and easy sells to the Marines who lived on Camp Pendelton down the freeway. Those vehicles were world-renowned in their…

When I originally got mine it felt very unstable. Then I found out the previous owner had installed aftermarket shocks that weren't even for the montero. I put on bilsteins and oh so smooth and so stable. There used to be an actual Mitsubishi test driver posting here on Jalopnik comments ages ago, maybe no longer…

The 6Gxx engines take abuse very well.

How can you be ‘a couple of provinces west’ of Victoria BC?

While I am not doubting Andrew’s research. I understand the cab lights have more to do with gvwr specifically for trailering over a certain weight.

That used to be my philosophy towards Nissan as well. I thought they were cool cause your grandpa didn’t own one and tell you how practical they were. They were building GT-R’s, S-Chassis, Z-Chassis, SE-R Sentras, “4DSC” Maximas, Body-on-frame Pathfinders and X-Terras.. it was fantastic. I think the VQ35 was on…

Yeah of course Nissan is lost. Had Nissan engineers come to my school for a career fair and they were excited about a Nissan Rogue and didn’t understand why CVTs were bad. “So what happens if it breaks out of warranty” - Nissan Engineers

Here in AZ you can’t strip licenses away from people who already don’t have one.  Practically every landscaping truck has Mexico plates.

I don’t even need to look to know that he did.  The kind of inconsiderate shitstain who doesn’t think about the consequences of an unsecured load sure as hell isn’t going to be bothered with something as cooperative as letting other drivers on the road know what the hell you’re doing. 

The brodozer crowd is going to love it; this thing conveys the right kind of overcompensating macho aggression. It’s for guys who want to show the world that they’re not like every other boring suburbanite: they’re real men who bought the most inefficient vehicle available for getting stuck in rush hour traffic. …

Here we go again...
