Absolutely not.

Or they could legislate against horrible conditions. There’s no reason racing can’t be humane, other than lack of effort or resources.

Spend some time with Grey rescues, many former track workers are involved and will quickly tell you just how wrong you are with that. That was from a 16 year old’s Lycos search in the 90s. Its been very different for a long time now.

GTI claims 228 HP–a 47 horse deficit

which has seen a shift towards military style weapons

You’re seriously suggesting a buyback from the most common type of rifle in America? There are plenty of great solutions being discussed, but that is absurd. That type of firearm has been extremely common for nearly 70 years and existed before that. Even just a buyback on ARs would be a massive under taking, they are…

Kind of. It wasn’t that the mileage they were hitting was surprising to other manufacturers, so much as it was that they able to get their diesels to pass the regulations. At that time Mercedes and BMW pulled all their passengers diesels from the US market while they rushed to put urea injection systems in. VW just…

They didn’t cheat on the mileage numbers, just the emissions and they ALL cheated. There was just less scandal about it because of the wonderfully well documented shenanigans from VAG execs trying to cover their asses very poorly.

How is: “That is in the report” in any practical way different then: “The report says ______” Mueller was very clear about what he would do if made to testify, expecting anything else is just showing the absurd amount of hubris some politicians seem to be exhibiting lately. The lesson should have been learned with…

The Nissan Frontier is a 15 year old truck...15, if it was a person it could have a learner’s permit. They on a race to the bottom like pre-bailout GM.

Interesting, we test drove the same two cars against each other and ended up liking the Renegade much more. Really did not like the cvt and motor on the subi. Different strokes for different folks

The 510 uses basically the same setup as most basement hatchway doors. It is nice that its centrally located too

Should have called it the Tiger, and they should have brought back the Tucker brand to make it.

Sounds like you’ve picked up the general idea behind F1's personalities rather quickly and accurately!

I always get concerned when a boat over 20' is stored outside long without a shrink wrap or a proper temp cover. If you’re not willing to spend a 5% of the purchase price on your floating money pit to keep it from rotting/deteriorating/molding to shit I’m not so sure buying a potential project car from them is a great…

Anything on Carbon buildup with these? Its an issue for basically every direct injection engine out there currently.

Thats definitely true for most full size truck owners I know, but most of the mid size truck buyers I know beat the hell out of them. Things like mulch; which I’ve done in my GTI and even with a good tarp you’re still going to smell like slightly rotten wood for a week or two, trap rock, decking, soil, dump runs, wood…

I’d buy it, but I’d rather not end up having to live in it after it eats up all my income and time. Pretty close decision though, but I’ll hold out for a similar vintage SL Merc with that outcome.

Well no, its how it was designed to be to prevent the small densely populated area’s from dictating how the geographic majority of the country functions. Its along the same reason of why we live in a republic and not a straight democracy.
