Ford 2.3 Turbo SOHC and a T5 or M5OD trans. 200+ hp/tq, good fuel economy, and manual transmission with rear-wheel drive, all of my boxes are now checked.

Here’s a concept... let’s have the accelerator pedal directly connected to the throttle body, with a nice strong return spring. You know, a setup with nearly zero chance of failing in the middle of Interstate 35 in Austin, Texas in bumper-to-bumper mid-day traffic. A setup that doesn’t wait two seconds between me…
As someone who’s owned two of the German-built Capris (have one with a 5.0/T5 swap in place of the German 2.8/4spd now), this was easy.
I have a little more truck than I need. I have a 3.7L V6 (the non-Ecoboost that nobody seems to know exists) F150 STX Sport Supercab with the towing package. I don’t really need the rear seat as a single guy with no kids, but once in awhile, I have more than one passenger, so it’s nice. I don’t need a 6.5 foot bed,…
No. I bought my 2014 F150 with Sync with great anticipation. I actually liked Sync in my mom’s 2010 Taurus Limited. I didn’t know how horribly different the versions of Sync were between the two until it was too late.
Just what I’ve always wanted, a Lincoln with buck teeth.
So... the executive involved in the bankruptcy of every company he’s been involved in except Ford (which was smart enough to fire him before he did enough damage to require bankruptcy) is joining forces with a guy who’s car company never got off the ground?
A friend and I both bought F150s awhile back. 3 days into owning it he nailed a buck at 70 on US190 in rural Texas. The next week I narrowly missed two in the same night on the same stretch. Mine has a grille guard, an LED light bar, and LED floods on the front now, his is still unprotected and running stock lighting.
Dear Toyota: Build me a manual trans 4x4 Hilux or GTFO.
“They” refers to Brian France, other officials, and the talking heads on TV. “They” say that NOW, after Kyle’s injury at Daytona, but for years they were saying that they had it where needed.
“They” keep saying that we don’t need SAFER barriers everywhere, yet, drivers keep hitting the areas that don’t have them. I honestly think the reason it keeps happening is because of the SAFER barriers reucing the amount of racing surface at some tracks, meaning that the data they used to decide where to put them is…
My sister bought an 80,000 mile 2004 Allroad in 2010 for not much more than that price, and it hadn’t been ruined like this one. Allroads are AMAZING fucking cars, but at this price after what has been done to this one, combined with the high maintenance costs of owning an Allroad... Crack Pipe.
Saturn is the one on this list I most agree with. My 1994 SL1 that I bought during the days of $4 per gallon gas to replace my classic T-bird with a big-block as my daily beater was freaking indestructible. Sure, passing someone was a three-step process that went: 1. Decide if its absolutely necessary, 2. Turn off the…
I’ve already had three Mustang IIs (I’ve owned 8 Mustangs total, three foxes and two S197s). My current project car is a 1975 Ghia I’ve had three years. The 302 has been punched .040 over, it has a Comp cam, ported and milled heads, Harland Sharp roller rockers, an Edelbrock intake, MSD Atomic EFI, MSD ignition,…
