I'd like it, but the whole front end forward of the A pillar looks like it's been raised about 4 inches so the proportions are just hosed. Smooth it out and get some decent wheels and it'd probably look awesome though.

Make the top of the tailgate flat, not curved like the original trunklid, and finish up the paint, I'd drive the gently caress out of that.

I hope you'll forgive me for thinking that was three images, of which my retarded internet allowed only the second to load. And yes, I would drive the hell out of that. Ironically, of course.

Hmm, interesting. I'd always thought the numbers like 80 or 120 or whatever meant the driver should be going this many km/hr.

That's the most underwhelming response to that sort of thing I could have imagined. Not "My ears or still ringing" or "I"m still picking bits of exhaust out of my garage floor" or even "yup, that was me"... Nope. Just "Hi "

I was just reading this article about Toyota trucks and I just read that they were getting 109hp out of a 2.0 liter engine in 1973. I don't know if that's SAE Net or whatever it's supposed to be these days, but seriously, VW still gets 115 out of their 2.0. Ford gets 160 in the Focus. I mean it's not like VW just can't build powerful engines, their shiny new 1.8T was a hoot in the new Jetta. I have low standards, but seriously, why?

Stop trying to justify the trike in terms of fun. The reason someone would buy it is because he loving wants one. No, I don't use my Suburban's 10,000 towing capability, and no I don't often use the 9-person seating capacity, and no I don't actually need to go off road every once in a while... so why do I have it? Because I loving wanted one. That's it. That is all the reason there needs to be. That's as logical as it gets. So hush.

80 mph speed limits had me pegging the 85mph speedo on my old Suburban on a regular basis when I lived in Texas... but let me tell you about turning an hour and 20 minute drive into a 55 minute drive in California, in the middle of the day, without a cop to be found. Also sideways at 60 on dirt roads abusing the lack of speed limit signs, and loving around in awful mud. I didn't deserve to get out of California without a speeding ticket, the way I drove. Aaand something was off balance so it was pretty much undrivable between 70 and 80. Above that it was tolerable but 75 was really annoying, especially considering 65 mph speed limits and my general limit-plus-ten rule. Didn't stop me from giving my right foot a good workout, though. 5500 pounds, 210 hp before twenty years of neglect, and a 42 gallon gas tank back when it cost $4/gal. That poor truck was the greatest piece of poo poo imaginable. edit: Wojcigitty posted:Also, a 96 Chevy Express van hits fuel cutoff at 100.
