“$225k in the rest of the country. Comfortable, but not rich.”

haha I remember an article on here stating there was going to be a Raptor version of the new Ranger... hopefully that will have enough Raptor blood on a shorter wheelbase to make it good for crawling as well as jumping.

What about Go-Devil?

Thunder Stroke sounds like something that is saved for the honeymoon only:

Voodoo

I have never heard of a “bedroom community.” After looking it up, it is not what first came to mind, but it makes perfect sense.

I really like classic bikes - so I’m looking at getting a newer Triumph as my next bike (not as a replacement, as an addition)

But Harley’s are fucking expensive, man.

Well, I’m glad you’ve never run into one of Those Guys..

Agreed. I have Norton shirts because I want to own a Commando one of these days.

I completely agree. From my eye, that looks like the kind of weld that you get when you use a MIG welder on aluminum that doesn’t have enough current to adequately heat up the joint. I’ve broken a couple of welds like that without too much force and found that the penetration is almost nothing. Robb, you might want to…

I mean, it was the engineers driving it, so they kinda did build it themselves.

*crushes keystone on forehead and shotguns it*

I personally liked the Ranger flaresides... but I may be biased on that cause I STILL have my remote control one from when I was like 8-9. Plus... bay watch.

I dig the built in steps all night and day, but I think the taillights bug me for the same reason a lot of people aren’t a fan of the runny egg headlights on Porsches (which don’t bother me much, oddly).

I still like em’ and they feel good, like a rattle trap old truck. There’s lots to love, but every brand gets a lemon off the line once in a while. Was just my turn to get one!

Fuck you. Just because these people are cooler than you doesn’t make them hipsters. I love Ladas, Super Beetles, and old bikes, but I don’t wear a lumberjack beard. I’m just interesting like Raph.

Carbs really aren’t that bad. I owned three bikes before I had a carb issue crop up. Depends on the carb though. Stupid simple CV carb on an XR is no problem.

So do they manage to do this without increasing rolling resistance to the cars? If the road deforms more than typical asphalt, they really wouldn’t be capturing lost energy as much as taking energy from people’s cars (which aren’t exactly thermodynamically efficient to begin with)
