As I recall Iron Duke was essentially half of a Pontiac 389 V8.

I had a 2000 Corolla with the 1ZZFE motor. I changed the synthetic oil every 3 to 5000 miles, and had no problem. At 125,000 I gave it to my nephew and his son totaled it.🤷🏻♂️😞. It was a pretty sweet little car.
1, Hooray for the death of the spindle grille.
The thing is speed limits are a mess. Where I live every single major road has a speed limit that is in most, not all cases too low. There is one with blind rises and curves that is posted of 65 that I wouldn’t dream of exceeding, and if they made it 60 or even 55 I would not consider that out of place. Some were dete…
LOL, seriously, communist, fascist, Marxist, and socialist, these words have all been rendered useless and meaningless because they are used as fear and smear words. The USA be a better country if everybody would just take a political science 101 course and a civics course.
This needs to be kept in context. unforgiving flat concrete barriers like in these crash tests are engineered out of highways.
I rented a Mark 4 Golf back in the 90s. So I’m not sure that was one of the cheater models but it was the higher output of two diesels offered. I kept track of the fuel consumption and even though I totally hammered it on the autobahn it still got mid to high 30s to the gallon. Many miles spent with the pedal to the…
In all fairness I have to wonder how much this car was run flat out on the Autobahn. Perhaps Tesla motor engineers didn’t consider that unique to Germany operating condition.
But, but, but, “the motor has less moving parts so it’s inherently more reliable”. How many times have I heard that talking point?
When I am a pedestrian I do what I was taught as a kid in school back in the 1960s stop look both ways and then cross the road when it is safe. I will not put my little tender body on a collision course with a multi ton metal vehicle. That said the pedestrians in the area where I live amaze me. I sometimes wonder if…
Did you mean thoughts and prayers’
How about requiring some rigorous driver education and training before issuing a drivers license? I know from talking with friends in Canada and Germany that they have to jump through a lot more hoops before they go to license.
But it’s a Jeep! , and around here in the Colorado mountains Jeeps have huge cachet.
So much for my EV worshiping friend, who repeatedly spouts the talking point that EV have such a simpler drivetrain with so few parts , they’re going to be inherently more reliable. Nope. Apparently well engineered combustion motor in a lot of models are far more reliable than some electric drives in a number of…
Auto headlights...... for humans who have such low intellect capability, that they can’t turn the lights on and off at appropriate times. 🙄
Yes I noticed that to the dark tint of the side windows drivers tend to be more aggressive more annoying it’s like they feel invisible so they can be more abrasive to others.
Top it but I’ll go there. I get so sick of the decades long automotive journalist griping about CVT transmissions “droning” I don’t know how that narrative started or how it managed to stick but it’s ridiculous. That’s the sound of the Interlocken bastion motor turn in the absolute most optimum RPM for the given…
This!! You qualify for my quotes collection that was awesome.
If Trump ordered him to drink poison Kool-Aid, do you think he would?? Come to think of it I wonder if he imbibed Clorox to fight off Covid, or maybe pushed a flashlight up where the sun don’t shine? Save America, MAGA!!
And some of the more obnoxiously bright DRL’s are entirely adequate for nighttime driving, it’s kind of why I hate them.
