There is no market for this type of car. I’m guessing the wealthy buy a ferrari and a tesla.(almost forgot the pricey suv).  Then maybe a prius for their daughter.

I got to ask, you are doing well, you probably worked very hard to get there, but why did you go into debt to buy a car ?

You get potentially mentally unstable dudes who train for violence for years, live in a mindset and subculture of violence, are taking shots to the head, drugged up, and then you expect them to behave live civilized people ?

Rubberized undercoating is no good. Eventually it cracks and lifts, letting moisture in behind it and trapping the moisture, which is horrible. Many layers of heavy duty paint is better.

I could see how this would be good in countries where the roads are horrible. Even with 2wd the additional ground clearance and suspension travel would help. Not many people can afford or want to drive a truck.  But for most north american or western european markets this makes no sense.

Whaaa !?   Isn’t welding car manufacturing 101 ?  I’ve seen better welding on $79 walmart bikes.

Non of that matters if it is reliable and practical and at a good price.

I played a bit of hockey, not much, but every player learns the hard way DO NOT have your head down when the puck is on your stick.  Big hits should remain part of hockey but they can’t be late and aim for the head. 

I totally love Coke and your description is of the taste is correct.  Similar to how coffee has a slight muddy flavour. 

Turbos are very expensive mufflers.

And no “manual” emergency/parking brake. Replaced by an overly complicated mess of electrons. Because pulling on a stick once in a while is too taxing.

A good battery with solid connections and no corrosion. Maybe a trickle charger and an engine block heater too.

I know this is way off topic but why does everybody have a tattoo these days ?

Grasping at straws and crying wolf. 

“ I am out of out of here while I still can remember my house address and my knees function more than just barometers”

Right now its harvest season, trains and trucks are full of wheat, corn and whatever. Maybe in a few months there will be more space available.

It should be clearly marked, like the inside trunk release.  What if the car was on fire ?  What if he got caught in a flood ?  What if.........

Amen. I used to work at a tool rental place so I was constantly lifting heavy stuff in and out of pickups. The newer trucks are just stupid in that regard.

I recall talking to a construction contractor about his very basic 2wd, v6 few options  pickup truck.  He said his contractor buddies with their optioned out mega pickup trucks were always complaining about fuel economy and finance payments.
