I think the 1l is the only one that isn't aluminum.

If you stay out of the boost the economy portion is there. Well similar economy to a NA v-6 of the same size (but less power.)

The vehicles it is used in are primarily for the NA market. F-150 pickup, Explorer SUV, Taurus SHO and the Flex crossover thing.

The block may fit in a roll-board but I'd like to see someone pick that up and wheel it around. How much does that iron block weigh?

Consumer reports does have the largest database of reliability data. There is some value in that, although maybe less in a 'disposable' society.

I think a great deal of the people on the road aren't really 'driving' anyway. That is, in the sense that driving is the task they are concentrating on. Too many mouth-breathers that are concentrating on doing their makeup, their phone conversation, reading the paper, eating breakfast......

5th - If the FTC wanted to do something they would neuter the stupid dealer franchise crap.

N - Autonomous cars are a necessary evil. This became readily apparent to me today when I was driving to work. I am housesitting for my parents so instead of a 10 minute commute I have a hour-long slog on surface roads with lights and plenty of traffic. Seeing all the people focused on things other than driving makes…

Volvo - I don't have a problem with them expanding their range but they still need to be Volvos. Safety and quirkiness should come standard.

Car dealerships and booze have to be the most obstructionist corrupt markets that exist (in the US anyway.)

With the new front clip, engine swap and paint I wonder if this was totalled and has a salvage title.

Now maybe they should go out and arrest all the cabbies that drive in the same fashion. Oh and while they are at it they should impound all the commercial trucks that are local and would never pass a DOT inspection. Pretty sure a 25k lb truck with faulty brakes is a safety issue.

Probably the only dialogue in that movie worth quoting. I posted a 250 GT Lusso, though.

A classic Ferrari.

3.4L v-8 used in the late 90s SHO is probably one the smallest ever used in a domestic vehicle (even though the engine was made by Yamaha)

Anecdotal evidence is anecdotal:

Of all time? I think the checker is the most iconic and served for many years so that would get my nod even if it would not be that great by contemporary standards.

My dad wanted one of these back in the day. Thankfully saner heads prevailed and he got a Maxima instead.

Vehicles that block the bike lane? Nah that never happens

OK, to prove your point. On a state level:
