I’m gonna throw my hat out there, and say it’s probably based on the Transit Connect platform. Makes more sense.

I think the FR configuration will go to Cadillac. Think of a replacement XLR.

Having a climate summit before you’re elected is the worst kind of masturbatory virtue-signaling on the earth. It’s a what-if game nobody wins if Mango Mussolini gets re-elected.

I, like many other scientists, think we’re probably past the point of no return. Turning it around at this point is like turning a bullet train around at full speed.

Since you suggested a used German car for reliability, I’m going to assume you don’t come here much.

To be fair, I live just over on the other side of the Rockies from you. I feel you. That’s why I wrote the novel above on a complete overhaul. The GR series as a whole is ancient.

Well, I think a refit of the 1GR is in order - specifically for direct injection. A 4.0 DI 1GR could probably hit 300hp/300ft-lb and gain a little ground on the MPG front.

“German reliability”

The Highlander is *slightly* larger (longer, specifically) than a 4Runner. Probably not.

New FJ?

Audi Allroad -

My cousin owned the equivalent Ranger from 1989, with the 2.9 V6. It sucked ass. It was horribly weak, and the transmission in it broke like it was German, which is to say, often.

No, but I’ve driven the equivalent Ranger, and it was a dog, at best.

Opioid literally just means opium-like. Fentanyl is vastly structurally different than Morphine, but we still call it an opioid. Why? It acts on the same receptors. We define “opioid” in pharmacology and medicinal chemistry as acting on the opioid receptor system. Kratom absolutely, positively contains opioids.

She’s getting to that level for sure.

Return of the Evil Dead with Pablo & Kelly

Have a little montage with Road Warrior / Mad Max Ash, and then kill Ash off at the beginning with Pablo and Kelly taking up the mantle. Totally okay.

I bet if they Outbacked it (added a 3" lift) they’d sell the piss out of them.

Still just as ugly as ever.

Crash standards are different in different places.
