Without knowing that it's some creepy pedo poo poo (I'm sure it is) the obvious repeat on the pattern bothers me aesthetically.

As vehicular tragedies go, it's a pretty mild one, if at all. Thumposaurus posted:There was that episode of monster garage where they built a trike around a semi truck engine. It looked better than that thing. cakesmith handyman posted:Following this trajectory you can easily see that the less truck there is in the final trike the better the result. RIP anyone on the right side of it, though. Needs a side-view camera.

Well that's the whole anime shtick, a bunch of battle hardened veterans that look like they're 12. So any creepy poo poo the fans fantasize about is "ok."

Terrible car stuff: I just learned Honda is getting rid of the Fit, civic coupe (including the si, which I currently have) and manual accord. As a coupe and manual transmission enthusiast, basically all the Honda’s I’d be interested in. More SUCs (supposed to be SUVs, but I’m leaving it), trucks and crossovers. Wonderful.

I can't tell form the lovely audio, but it seems there is no oil in there and it's definitely timed wrong. There is probably something else too. If he relly pulled the "entire" thing apart he probably forgot like......rod bearings.

They aren't even bringing the newest model year of Fit to the US. I understand why some people like crossovers, but I don't understand why they're displacing absolutely everything else besides trucks.

I just checked and the HR-V, the crossover built on the Fit platform, only has AWD standard for the top trim level. The so called "sport" trim level only comes with a CVT.

Unfortunately a LOT of car makers are moving in this direction, including domestic US ones like Chrysler/Ford/GM. I think I'd heard something about demand going down for coupes/sedans so they were shifting focus toward SUV variants while only keeping the high-end sports cars like Challenger, Mustang, Corvette, etc. & eventually phasing out small/mid-size cars altogether.

The Yaris is dead too, because no one was buying it. Which is a car no one ever really cared about, though the 2008 hatchback I had was a perfectly fine commuter car. I also drove it across the country a few times and it was okay for that too!
