That’s my point, they list safety and emissions as a reason, but the shit we got here in the states was way worse.

It’s not even really that, think of the shit cars that were sold here 25 years ago.

All of FCA’s V8 OHV engines, Ford’s 1.0 and 2.7 Ecoboost engines, and I’m sure there are more.

I’ve never had my brakes override anything, but I always have everything turned off.

Since I’m a blast at parties, you should know that that is a 2009 and up, R3 edition. So it’s not affected by this. Leave the R3's alone!!! Or don’t and drive the prices down farther...

No, the early ones were just time bombs for the most part. In fact certain tunes actually improve reliability.

The early ones seemed to have the most problems, and while your dad probably needs to have a rainy day fund for the gaskets, it might not ever happen with those miles. I would take a 2006 or 2007 6.0 over any variation of the 7.3. With the gaskets fixed, its a far better engine than the 7.3.

The early 98 with the 4-door extended cab and 5-speed is the holy grail.

Yep, while the 86 is a much better platform if you want to go crazy with mods, I found the FiST much better to drive when stock. So much better that I bought one.

No, the FRS/BRZ was exactly what enthusiasts asked for: Cheap, light, rwd, good chassis, good steering. Exactly what they asked for, until it came out during the age of turbocharging everything, and the realization that revs couldn’t keep up with boost.

The GMT400 Silverado or Sierra, because of the insane amount of incestuous owners.

We have one, and it’s the best and worst. Worst because you are in a fibreglass oven.

I bought a plug, but I never installed it. It’s not loud at all.

Yes, Quafe and Wavetrac both have options available.

A tune really helps for the fun of being in traffic. Or an exhaust.

It can’t be turned off. It’s not a speaker induced symposer. It’s a pipe connected to the intake.

He didn’t do it well enough.

I hate driving through Georgia in general.

Mine pretty eagerly revs to 7k, but it’s tuned. And it realistically starts losing power after about 5700. Still pulls though.

If the revs dropped fast in the ST, it’s definitely tuned. The rev hang is awful in the FiST, as I bought a tune solely to get rid of it.
