Think about Rocky 4 with less Soviet Union.

old ones.

old ones.

1500-2000, sure. 3000... sorry. Too many miles. Reliable or not there are going to be too many small gremlins creeping their way in.

well. damn. I gotta say you’re right.

2005 - First gen out the gates.

Say what you want about the Hellcat being ridiculous, a show-off toy and nothing else, and owned by old guys wanting to be cool or whatever... but give credit where it is due - it seems to be ushering in another age of ridiculous horsepower being shuttled to the customer direct from the dealer or factory.

This will be a future niche collector’s car. Too weird and too pricey to be adopted now, too fast and weird to just disappear.

Electrical gremlins? I was all ready to give an enthusiastically bro-tastic high five on mutual Magnum ownership! It’s been the most trouble free car I’ve owned, TBH. I’ve got a fair a mount of go-faster adders to it and at 100K I replaced most of the front suspension bits, but never had anything act up on it that…

Wagon (obviously), Ute, T-Tops.

I read this. Then I read the build thread. I got dizzy and passed out. When I awoke I had pressed NP...

Full figured car, too full-figured price. CP

If they couldn’t take the time to vacuum the back before taking pictures to sell the car, they didn’t take time to rebuild an engine properly. CP

Honestly, I never had a problem with Bjorn. Was a super nice guy in person. Ate lunch and dinner with him and hung out with him multiple times while with Bellator, his end of tenure happened while I was with them. Say what you will about how he handled the Alvarez situation, he did seem more interested in creating…

Interesting idea, but the biggest problems are 1) the career length of an MMA fighter isn’t that long compared to the average professional athlete 2) the number of fighters waiting in the wings to replace anyone that stands their ground is too great and 3) MMA fans are fickle and cycle through favorite fighters and…

Professional fighter for 10 years. Fought on Bellator for a few years. Teammates fought in the UFC. That “independent contractor” status hurts when negotiating time comes.

Having just in November purchase a winter beater in the “why the hell not” price range.. let me tell you - there is still a “hell not” where you’ll spend more time purchasing and installing parts than ever driving the thing. A $1500 car can balloon right up to a 3k car quite quickly while remaining thoroughly not…

The goatee says that this was not musk.. but his evil twin!!

We replace failed Nissan CVTs that haven’t been abused at 60k-80k on the reg. I can’t imagine that frail of a transmission handling that much more output. When will people learn that just because the engine can handle it, everything else might not?
