Maybe, maybe not, but their managers who make the decisions do...

Uhhh these are automakers we are talking about. Just look at the cars they build, how often does something not make sense or completely miss the point? Quite often.

No, they just have massive torque and a wheel/tire combo that accounts for a pretty good percentage of the overall weight. They can use the inertia of the tires to change the attitude of the chassis, just like a dirt bike, or off-road racer can to a smaller degree.

I don't think a mid engine truck would tow a trailer very well. No weight over the front axle = death.

I think this article misses all of the gearheads who stood with and behind Paul Cook to save their beloved sand box. Dave Cole of Hammerking Productions, who puts on King of the Hammers, was a HUGE force behind Paul Cook. Jeff Knoll was also very supportive of saving the hammers and played a large role in making this…

They found evidence of good anti-dive control (to keep the nose up under hard braking) and it all appears to weigh less (overall, not just unsprung) than the outgoing…

I like it, the last WRX was too boy-racer looking. This is more mature and grown up looking. It could still be a little more aggressive, and it needs a hatchback.

Can you enlighten me on this?
