I mean, petrol ain't great either...

When you have no food, an appetite suppressant is a pretty attractive option.

The answer boils down to "mendacity or idiocy" by the sound of it.

6/16/21

It’s rather less attractive from the front unfortunately:

All of the Aston “DB” cars are named for David Brown, but he was the owner of the company rather than the designer (amusingly, he bought A-M after seeing an advert in the classifieds section of The Times for a “High class motor company”).

Plus everybody is paying the costs for said asshat to drive his car in their premiums.

Additional qualifications would be entirely reasonable. It won’t happen because Freedom™, but it would be sensible.

6/13/21

Of course. They've taken punts on far dumber things than this in the last couple of months alone.

A complete redesign is coming next year (it's a JV with VW, and will also be the basis for the next Amarok).

I would love to have seen Dio in his pomp. One of the great frontmen, and a hell of a voice which was even more amazing from such a diminutive bloke.

(And considering how cheap a chip-tune is - you can apparently get 76kW for under $2K - I can see why Walkinshaw are focusing on the suspension side of things.)

The anorak is the one that can spot the difference between an Amarok and a Ranger.

6/12/21

Suspension tuning and big wheels with wider tyres (so they recognise that the buyers aren’t really worried about off-road capability). And a lairy exhaust and some body plastics, by the look of it.

6/11/21

They’re like a plague. Walkinshaw are building quick Amaroks now.

6/11/21

What kind of engineer? Because I’m a mech eng, and this sounds like hell.

6/11/21

No thank you.

6/11/21

The amount of Rangers and Hiluxes you see these days...

It seems like you’re getting a lot of shit for this take, but it seems quite reasonable to me. If you live in a city (and not, as some people here seem to be thinking, live in the suburbs and commute to a city), this is a silly vehicle to buy. It’s compromised in many, many ways:

Maybe they genuinely think they’re action heroes instead of public servants. And that they should be getting into gunfights and car chases instead of protecting and serving the public.
