It really depends if he has a push mower or a rider. If its a push mower, any small truck or van would work just fine. Although carrying around gas and oil would probably be better in a truck, so you’re not breathing fumes and what not. A van would give better security and protection from the elements. 

Dodge has no problem shoving massive horsepower into vehicles, but I haven’t heard anything about the suspension they’re going to put into this. One thing that makes the Raptor stand out was that they actually put in a suspension to match the use. If Dodge just throws a 2" lift and fox shocks, its not going to do…

I dont hate it, but if they use hub motors, then that 4,400 ft-lbs is all you’re going to get. That sounds like a lot, but my 2004 land cruiser can muster up 11,500 ft-lbs once all the gear reductions are taken into account. I see this as a competitor for the Ridgeline. 

Has anyone done any background work into PinkFong? I’d love to know the story there. 

Its the OG crew cab pickup. Too bad your legs are the crumple zone. I still think it would be great for odd jobs around town though

God, why all this politics talk on a car blog. Geez.

Forgot about the Ma Deuce. If its not broke, don’t fix it. 

I guess fix up the Corvair, but these are all shitty options. I’d try to sell the volvos for scrap, which should gain a couple hundred bucks, which combined with the initial $600 might be enough to get something running. 

Considering the size of our military budget, that’s an issue. Which firearms are you referring too? The garand M-1 and 1911 were both retired from military service, in favor of the m14 and M9 if I’m not mistaken. 

I’d love to have a beater truck for dirty tasks, but I don’t have the space for multiple vehicles. 

Yeah, thats a bit ridiculous. I realize it costs a fortune to get a new airframe designed and approved, but that’s insane. At some point you need to either need to start rebuilding them, or retire them in general. 

Are they retrofitting old ones, or building new ones? I’m a big proponent of “if its not broke, don’t fix it” (which also applies to the A10), but using the same airframes from the 50s seem to be unlikely. 

The lack of 4wd excludes it for me, but I have no doubt he’ll sell it at that price. 

You realize the current Suburban is almost the same size right? Not to mention all the crew cab, half-ton trucks on the market. Sometimes people have more than two kids and also have a need to tow. This is perfect for that, like the Suburban 2500 was. 

You and me both. Theres a chance its all on the up and up, but I can’t imagine Gaetz wouldn’t have been using this for political points before this.

Toyota should be able to do it relatively easily. Add some suspension height (>2") to the Sienna AWD, and you’re there.

Performance in the last 20 years has just lept forward. The number of 400-500 hp vehicles you can buy is insane. 300 hp used to be a hot rod, its just common now.

The E34 is a great looking sedan, but I’m partial to the E28 myself. That said, while the Dinan chip isn’t a bad sign to me, the stop leak is. BMW has enough issue with reliability on their own, you don’t need to start blocking coolant passages with gunk. 

Surprised I haven’t seen it yet, but the BMW M10 and M30 engines. The M10 put BMW on the map with the “Neue Klasse” cars, culminating with the E30 M3; and the M30 was made for almost 30 years, and was the basis for numerous BMW race engines. 

I love this show more and more every time i watch it. It started out slow, but found its pacing quick..
