Had one mid race. Heard a strange vibration, figured it was a wheel bearing. Finished the 15 mile stage taking it easy-ish. On the next short stage, I noticed I was getting crazy pad knockback and hopped out afterwards to discover all the nuts finger loose. I zipped them with the impact and drove on to win my class :)

That’s amazing, and good for us enthusiasts, considering the sales per year in the U.S.

And the hype machine changes gears now that Supra is released.

All I know is my car gets forty rods to the hogshead and that’s the way I likes it

They should have just used the universal unit of torques, the Nurple. Then it’d be easy to explain.

If there’s anyone who disagrees with me

We can’t even get people to stop buying boring colors on their paint, let alone their tires!

We need a full ban on White, Black, and Silver paint. For a good 10 years.

He’s complaining about $60k 944s, which effectively cost more than that when new decades ago, so yeah, it’s relevant.

I hate to break it to you, but they were expensive 30 years ago...

People spend a lot of time in their cars. They want their cars to be pleasant places to spend time, even if you’re just idling at a red light. 

Probably because no one wants to drive their AWD turbo sedan back to back with a base Corolla and come away wishing the AWD turbo sedan was as nice as the Corolla inside.

Also this AWD turbo sedan shares a whole bunch with a regular sedan, which needs the “bloat” to sell.

“was discovered” where? why? how? what happened over the decades? More details please?

I’m a car guy and wondered the same thing, so I did a long test drive in a Model 3 with the performance upgrade.

Username checks out. 

Here’s a rough example of some of the numbers I’ve been running on this. Even when you account for fuel economy a full size truck tends to be a better value than say, a full size sedan. A midsize sedan is a pretty good value, but the full size truck is so close it hardly matters to most people when you consider all…

And their means because they just took an 8-year loan out to get that F-450.

What is it about pickups? What do they do that I can’t do? What is it! Tell me, please, god, I’m a shell without you.

I had one of the originals:

and a turn signal silencer.

No need for off-road tires if you’re just rolling over people who can’t get out of the way.
