It was a recent acquisition, as in within the last year. I have been a Cooper tire distributor for 15 years. We actually used to sell Hercules, but had some quality issues a couple years back. Hercules used to basically get the hand-me-down Cooper molds, so when they got the hand-me-down Trendsetter mold, it was bad…

When I first read the headline, my reaction was “get outta here, this has to be a Torch article.” Then I saw it was a Tracy article and I was kinda dumbfounded.

Cooper sold off Hercules BTW, to a Chinese company.

Nexen, Westlake, Hemisphere, Nankang, Jinyu, all sold in the USA to many people. It drives me crazy when I get in a customers car, lets say a Focus, and they are complaining about noise. I go down the road and I immediately realize its the tires. I get back to the shop and take notice that they are some Jinyus that…

WANT.

Kinja hates this PC, but I run megaphones on my hot rod for a place for the flamethrower spark plugs, and they give it a decent look.

*Sees front end* SIGN ME UP FAM!

I want a FRC bad :(

Taking the rack out to do the (always failing) balancers is pretty annoying.

I love C5s, but the interior is kinda plastic fantastic, and they can be a bear to work on. I will own one someday.

NP, and I’m not a fan of M-B in any way.

I fucking love first gen Neons. The interior was terrible, but they were light and fun, especially in ACR trim.

I want to jam a SBC in that and rip donuts...

I was gonna say “If you were at E-town, why the hell did you drive the whole way to Englishtown?”, Then I realized my E-town (Elizabethtown, PA) is not the same as your E-town...

The animated shorts released at the beginning of Diablo 3 were fantastic too! Just wish they would do more (or a whole series!)

Could do without the scoop, but I’m all the way NP on this one.

It may not be the prettiest thing, but I’d bet you that it is still the nicest Toyota branded vehicle by far.

Worse, actually.

While the 6.0 and 6.4 are normally worth more as scrap than as an engine, the 6.7 is actually pretty good with the exception that they are absolutely crammed into the engine bays.
