Baymax?
‘70 Boss 302, Grabber Orange, R-Code. Handled well (for the day) and the loony graphics didn’t hurt.
Well, it was originally referred to as a “secretary’s car,” by Carroll Shelby so, maybe there is some merit.
Nothing really too remarkable, we had a fleet of late 80's-early 90's Chevy Lumina/Celebrity all of which were pretty terrible. I was however, the only one in my group able to reverse park and parallel park without issue during our parking lot practice-course.
The real take-away; don’t get rid of your first car if you can help it.
2003-2004 Ford F-150 Super-crew (4 doors) Harley Davidson Edition. 360 HP in stock configuration, (same powerplant as the Lightning of the same vintage), blower pulley, exhaust and tune later, your well within sneezing-distance of 450 HP and you can pull your boat with it. Use the rest of the money for tires/gas.
If you’re willing to drop a little more coin I’ve been eyeballing this one (also not too far from the one above):
Me thinks.....:
Cooter would approve:
Also, while not a car opinion, Harley Davidson is garbage. The brand, the “lifestyle” and every asshole that owns one with a giant-ass front faring, a radio that I can hear over the “super-sweet” straight pipes that deafen every dog for a ten mile radius. Fucking stupid.
I like mid to late 1970s American vehicles. Yes, they were huge, underpowered and in most cases were hideous. No idea why and I don’t care, I love them. Can’t wait to own a 1979 F-250 and drive my dads 1978 Mercury Cougar XR7.
Oooo, a red Pontiac Aztek @ 1:43.5.
Too many yaaagah bombs?
Yeah but with a name like “Mako Shark II” how could you go wrong:
Hoonicorn V1?
At least it lived. Reminded me of the cat caught in the serpentine belt of 2007 GT500 at a local car show... owner popped the hood to show off the stock engine compartment and it’s head was resting against the blower drive pulley.....it was the only fatality that day.
Starred for all the oxen lost fording the river.
While I appreciate the innovation of all of this, it detracts from the over “mystique” of the car. Much of the allure of driving any old car is the analog nature and such a pretty car shouldn’t sound (or lack of) like a senior-center’s lawn ornament with a “I love my Smorkie” sticker on it.
Forgot one more thing:
