The weight issue is hysterical. Before the aluminum F-150 the Silverado's were an average of 500-600lbs lighter than their Ford equivalent and this was hardly ever mentioned. Ford announces aluminum bodies and everyone loses their minds saying what a revolution they're going to bring. Now they're aluminum and the…

Not surprising in the least. EcoBoost is the most successful lie sold to American consumers and if they're stupid enough to believe the claims, too bad. Absolutely brilliant marketing strategy, can't blame Ford.

Haha, you're preaching to the choir man. Drives me nuts. Although to be fair the locals probably drive closer to 10 under. People look at me like I'm the biggest asshole in the world when I'm going the speed limit. How dare I!

Same. But I'll be back Sunday afternoon ;)

You may be right. This probably sounds horrible but its not like I can tell them apart. I was told by a Chinese friend that the ones with the more umm... unique haircuts and dress were Koreans now that you mention it. Although this one girl I slept with last semester was definitely Japanese, from Yokohama IIRC which I…

Yeah I agree with everything you wrote. The only thing is the ones here are literally fresh off the boat/plane and come for 4 years, get their degree, and leave. I'm a mechanical engineering major and have classes with a lot of the international students. I can attest to them being very polite and nice. I talk to a…

GO WHITE! Haha Sparty on brotha

Yup, they all must have terrible eyesight or glasses are a fashion necessity in the far east. Hate to sound stereotypical but they are generally horrible drivers as well. $150k+ supercars and they never begin to approach the (very low) speed limits around here. This crash was a block from my house and check out this…

Don't forget the Japanese/Chinese international students at Michigan State. I see them everywhere here in East Lansing.

Phoenix=GT

Wow, used to love Chris' work because he didn't come off as the stereotypical, pretentious asshole Brit. Guess I was wrong. I'll be paying much less attention to his stuff in the future. Kind of disappointing and sad really.

I'm ok with the UK closures, they can handle themselves and won't accept Russian incursions like other, more feeble members of NATO. I just hope we don't shy away from the Baltics. It would be nice to see a permanent presence in the region, beyond the air policing deployments. A base in Poland would really get Putin's…

Go read the Holden forums, there's some Aussies that cleared 100k with the 2.8 and not a single thread/post on timing belt issues. Also, I've never uttered the words "truck engine" and mock those who do as well.

My god, I hope you haven't procreated. There may still be hope for humanity. Here it is right from the horses mouth: http://www.chevrolet.com/colorado-small…. Says, "Available MY2016" and "Available Fall 2015" right on the page in case you're reading impaired. Also the 2.8 Dmax has been used since 2012 in global…

Huh? You mean MY 2016, so like this fall? http://www.dieselpowermag.com/features/chevy… Nice try on the GM hate though, it'll be out before the Cummins Titan I believe you were alluding to. For once GM will be first in a segment.

The front end is horrid but I like the rest better than the Colorado. I'd already own one or the Canyon if they'd have used the 4.3 instead of the 3.6. Now I just gotta wait for the baby Dmax.

I wouldn't want my employee's reading the garbage on this site either. My workplace blocks Kinja as well, although more out of fear of us contributing content than consuming it. Discretion is pretty important around here.

L.O.L. I just checked, theres only one fool running Mopar in 10.5 Outlaw, 0 in 8.5, and like 2 in Pro Mod. These guys know what they're doing and they know Hemi's are junk. Check it out for yourself. http://www.streetcarsupernationals.com/ BTW not a single class win for Mopar last year :(

The only universe where Hemi's are faster than LSX's is the one you created in your head. I think I've seen turbo Buick's win more Outlaw races than Hemi's.
