  1. ...Mercedes also had a 6.2 and it was as glorious as they come.
  2. GT-R and 370Z are fine but I'd never spend the money on them when there are other options that are way better all around for the same or very similar dollars. Also, I'm not a V6 fan so neither really sound like I want a toy to sound.
  3. +1 +1 +1 Yup. You'll get thrown into anything when you have an open opinion. There are only a few brands that I don't have an open opinion on and the biggest is Nissan. They're all garbage and it'll be difficult to change my mind about them.
  4. I cannot dispute that point of view. However, it doesn't seem like an unjust law, to me.
  5. It's easy to do when you don't follow laws.
  6. Agreed. I think manufacturers need to work on heavier refreshes to make platforms last longer, their investments. I can't imagine how much money could be saved/profited if they extended a platform for even one additional year after all fixed costs associated to R&D have been amortized.
  7. Hey, at least they weren't paying labor costs that whole time! My assumption is that it is as exaggerated as much as possible. It is probably the number of sales at transaction prices(meaning not the actual cost to the company). I just assume this because news outlets are always pushing something, likely UAW scum pushing the articles to get written.
  8. I know it isn't a guarantee but when there are that many offered, it is likely because it is the preferred choice. I also believe that when the fuel is mostly cheaper per country and it's more efficient, it makes the most sense for it to be a popular fuel source. https://autotraveler.ru/en/spravka/fuel-price-in-europe.html#.XbmUMihKiM8
  9. The above picture does not insinuate a gap like there is here. It only looks about a foot of a gap in the above picture, to me. In all fairness, the trailer on the above picture appears to be completely over the pairs of wheels as opposed to what the below picture shows.
  10. Ford and FCA don't have the profit numbers GM does so they might be able to skate by a little easier.
  11. Search any of the manufacturers' sites. Diesel is all over the place still.
  12. Yep, they need to dump them as soon as possible, along with Ford and FCA.
  13. Please mansplain how the system is effective without a large portion of the vehicles on the road using it? That's all I stated.
  14. Legitimately, what did I do for him to start firing off towards me?
  15. Your reading comprehension level is dogsh!t. Read the whole thing before jumping to a conclusion. How many times do I have to say that it IS USELESS UNLESS THERE ARE ENOUGH VEHICLES USING IT.
  16. Then WTF are you arguing about if they're doing it?!?
  17. It's factual that it is useless unless there are enough vehicles using it. 17% of new vehicles will never cut it. Like I originally said, AGAIN, unless all of the manufacturers get together and all implement it together, it will be damn near useless.
  18. So back to my original point. There simply aren't anywhere near enough vehicles on the road for this system to be truly effective. I'm not saying the technology is bad or anything. I simply said;
  19. And your V2V system isn't going to know there may be 5 vehicles in between you and the other V2V vehicle braking.
  20. That sounds like the auto-brake sensing systems already out there. It wouldn't be the lights triggering it but the distance closing quickly.
