They mention it in an embedded link in the article.

C&D had to get a second car while testing the darn thing:

My best guess is an EGR delete kit. Those have been popular for awhile with the diesel tuner crowd. The Ford 6.0 and 6.4 both had some serious issues with the EGR cooler getting clogged or leaking coolant which in turn would damage the EGR valve itself.  It was pretty common for people to bypass the cooler or just…

You should be able to downshift from 6th to 5th without blowing up the engine at most speeds. 1st or 3rd at high speed will do it!

Looks like the factory tires for the Corolla GR are Michelin Pilot 4S 235/40ZR18. That ZR means over 168 mph is the speed rating (ZR is kind of unspecified in that it means above V rating, equal to W and greater). I think it should be fine at 114mph.

Yes, especially in this situation. An underground garage is kind of the worst case scenario for a fire in that access is limited for a pump truck and for personnel. There’s also limited ventilation (which is good to limit the fire but bad from a toxic fume perspective). I would say fire departments should definitely…

Yes, I was not saying for the same price.  I don’t think I’d pay more than $10k for an XKR and that would be mint condition.  I was just trying to think of an equivalent car (same era, power output, convertible, etc.) that I’d rather have.  I would definitely buy an F-type for $30k.

Not worth the headache of owning a Maserati. I don’t think these are particularly good looking either and if I wanted an unreliable sports car I can get a better looking XKR of similar vintage with the same horsepower and more torque.

My dad has an ‘08 Milan Hybrid.  That car is fantastic.  I don’t think I’ve ever seen below 38mpg driving it.  That’s highway, city, whatever.

If you want more power than the base V6 the next step is the low output Hurricane I6tt which offers 420 hp at 5,200 rpm and 468 lb-ft of torque at 3,500 rpm.  You cite the High Output version as the next step up.  Either way there is a notable gap between the 300hp V6 and the 420hp I6tt.  The Hemi is a fine engine to…

First generation Escape hybrid.  Probably ‘07 or something.  As it was the first hybrid SUV, Ford hadn’t figured out the tuning between the engine and the electric motor.  You would press the gas and nothing wouldn’t happen then hit it harder, still nothing, then the gas engine would rumble to life and the car would…

You’re surprised a male Kennedy is running for president?  That’s kind of their thing.

GMC Safari-

I think the best way they have found to quantify handling would be road holding or the skid pad expressed in “g”.  Car & Driver just drives around a 300ft. circle as fast as possible until the car breaks loose.  I agree that handling is subjective but in terms of how to compare 2 sports cars chances are the one with…

Don’t need Spotify when you have Pocket Full of Kryptonite on disc.  Poor reception won’t make me have to pause Two Princes.

You know there are mileage limitations on leases right? Those are usually 12k miles per year (36k at the end of a 3 year lease). If you are a full time ride share driver you probably do the entire 3 year lease mileage in a single year.  So why don’t you redo your math factoring in the extreme penalty paid out for…

I think its for his pet hawk.  He is big on hawks.

You didn’t notice this big CD shaped slot with an ejector button next to it?

I read the whole article and there is not one mention of how a current Porsche Boxster has a CD player. Like you are going to make a whole article about the Subaru and not mention that a brand new Porsche has a CD Player!  How am I going to play Spin Doctors in this new EV you keep rambling about?

Australian-is that a BMW M8?
