I’m okay with the wait, the longer the wait the less of a financial mistake it will be when I buy one.

I guess like Range Rover and Range Rover Sport.

Nah, I meant the one they give you at the first garage. A solid little towing vehicle. But now that I know I can sell trucks easily, I shall!

I’ve been playing this pretty hard as of late. My little IH Scout will go anywhere. It’s fantastic. I love the customization of it all. I do dislike the bugs. My 4WD Freightliner disappeared one night, and I’m down to two scout vehicles and that one Highway starter. Money gets hard to come by when you can’t go over…

Counterpoint, my Fiesta ST was $23k brand new. So I’d say that makes two fun turbo bread boxes.

Awesome! That’s sweet. I wish you the best, I’m on the wrong side of the pond myself. I’ll have to find one here in the states sometime.

OH. GO ON. I am EXTREMELY interested.

Your comment led me down the rabbit hole of thought. Assuming we forgive companies for there misdeeds (Ford and the Pinto, any foreign manufacturer during a war), at what point does the grace period kick in? For you at least, when would you go back to buying from these companies, assuming they never apologized or made…

I’m a masochist, so I buy both.

Almost bought a manual 2 door once. Decided not to since it was RWD only. Maybe I made the wrong choice? I don’t know.

Oh yeah, dibs on the turbo kit!!

This is a good take. BMW did make an excellent deal. I think Toyota did the same thing to Subaru, but ended up the winner in the 86 twins game. Or at least they came out well. I bet they thought they’d do the same here, and instead they just paid BMW loads of $$$ and engineering expense just to end up with a meh car.

According to Grime’s pronunciation guide, you were really close Torch! Excellent job!

Thanks, artist formally known as Prince.

Call me crazy, but I want to think this was motivated more by $$$. Some cheap bastard thought it’d be easier to fire one mechanic than all the others.

Didn’t check the author when I started. Halfway through I was wondering... “Hmm, who wrote this one up?”

Counterpoint: they make for the most beautiful of F-1 examples.

I’m on the wrong side of the country! Oh well.

Safari 928? I’m game. Let me know when and where and we’ll make it happen.
