Is it just me, or does this look like a wrap rather than having actually been made of Carbon fiber?

It always bothers me in my truck that this graph is limited to 30 MPGs. I wish it would dynamically adjust and maybe have a low cap of 30? Sometimes I get well over 30 for extended stretches of downhill driving, but it just sits at its “max” of 30.
On the other hand, I do understand that it would make the graph harder…
The real scary thing with these are all of the people that are buying toy haulers and don’t know how to load them properly. Put too many toys in the far back and you can have negative tongue weight, which I would say is almost worse than too much.
Sadly, this does not work effectively on trucks. The convex mirrors have saved my life (and that of morons driving in my blind spots) more than just a few times.
I just love the emphasis that goes into each and every word of “HFS!”
I turned off traction control on my truck the other day, just for a bit of fun. I hadn’t realized how much it saves my ass when I get a heavy foot. A blip of the throttle and the rear wheels forget that they are supposed to provide traction to the ground. Diesel + no weight over the drive wheels = spinning tires.
The final version has top-exit exhausts, which is by far the best place for exhausts to exit.
I am finding California to be really confusing right now. We have a higher diesel tax than gas tax, which does normally mean that the Diesel price is a fair amount more than even premium. That being said, I have been laughing at my friends as I have been able to get diesel at a good 30 cents cheaper than regular for…
No problem. I am waiting for some better weather, and for my friends' availability to open up, so I can get my wake-boat out. This past weekend was in the mid 80s where I live so I almost succeeded until one person got sick and the other got hung over. I really do want to see how it compares to my father's 2004 LB7…
Tl;Dr: Roughly 13 to 14 mpg.
How often does the DPF Regen kick in, and for how long? My 2015 PowerStroke gets great mileage on the highway for something its size/power, and then the DPF regen starts to do its job and all that goes down the toilet.
In response to all of your questions: 2008.
We should write a "We The People" petition to ask why this law still exists. Jalopnik has more than enough people that care about this to get over the 100,000 votes.
From spending decades going to lakes to water ski, I agree 100%. On the other hand, it is also quite amusing being the driver of the boat. I get a good laugh disappointing the people waiting around and watching when I drive the boat back onto the trailer in one quick motion.
Hood damage? It doesn't even look like anything else is damaged.
Ford did it. They actually went and did it. It's been rumored about and speculated on for months, but now we know it's real. This is it: the new Ford GT. Ford just dropped a bomb on the rest of the world, and it's got a 600 HP twin-turbo V6, if you can believe it.
Assuming that they went with the literal definition of twin-turbo and not with dual sequential turbos, and that each turbo has its own exhaust line instead of just one line with a split at the end, it should help with lag. Each turbo is only dealing with its own back pressure instead of that of the other turbo as well.
This actually looks more proportional than the outgoing Raptor. I haven't decided if that is a good thing or not. The fact that the outgoing Raptor was just a little too wide for the rest of its styling made it obvious that it was a Raptor. This one fits its skin just enough that you have to know what you are looking…
This still doesn't look real. I am impressed.
