Breaking through a turn really isn’t an issue unless the road is icy. STM/TCS in most cars does a wonderful job of keeping things on the straight and narrow. Now if every car was built like a rear-brake-only kart? We’d 95% of the population dead in a week.

NHL 15 Demo? Really? And with that crap of a highlight? Idiot.

Damn that was brutal.

I have a pretty awesome story.
When I was younger I played roller hockey (ice was too expensive and we lived in southern california) at a Gretzky Roller Hockey Center. Gretzky was in town to visit for the grand opening and I won a chance to skate with him and a handful of other kids. Awesome guy. He didn’t lace up,…

VIII was the best!!!

Honda’s have the best CVT? Drive a 4-cylinder Accord. Absolute crap. It STUTTERS when you put your foot in it. What the hell!

Drive a Maxima with CVT. It’s glorious. That thing moves.

You don’t just “add a lower gear”. It shifts the whole set of ratios.

Have you not understood all along that more gears=more efficiency? That’s the main purpose. I’ll give you an example, sense you’re more of a visual learner.

Nobody said it was necessary. Nobody said it was more fun. I simply said it gave a very nice cruising gear. For long drives, 7th gear is amazing. It’s more comfortable and fuel efficient than 6th - but also just a step away from the same power. Much like shutting down cylinders at highway cruising speed. Do I need it?…

So continue thinking along those lines.... If we have more lower gears, they can be stretched farther, thus allowing final gear to be a bit taller with lower rpms at cruising...

IMHO Mazda always had the sexiest low-budget car models. I just always feared their reliability. Born and raised Toyota - it’s tough for me to switch. I had a new Honda Accord for about 5 days before I traded it back in.

Take it to a Toyota dealer. They’ll do the maintenance for cheaper to boot!

The subaru downfall will be the damn rattles. Sorry. If my car rattles all damn day, I’ll kill somebody.

I liked 7. Gave you a very nice cruising gear.

Tom. We need a Top Hits album.

“A Ford service technician posted two videos earlier this year(2014) addressing the issue. Essentially he discovered that aging EcoBoost engines are experiencing misfires caused by carbon buildup on the intake valves. When he called Ford for a fix, he was told that Ford is recommending changing the cylinder heads…

That’s the argument he’s making. You can’t do much of the work yourself. Hell, every 40k they have to pull off the intake manifold and clean the valves. Good luck not ruining your turbo that way.

Does everything HAVE to be a twist? Can’t it just BE the story? Geez. It’s an amazing show. Period. Some of the best acting around, to boot.

YOU STOPPED WANTING BACON?!?!?!!!
