2020-11-22 03:32:47 UTC  

thats the blue i was thinking of

2020-11-22 03:33:19 UTC  

i think the best color for a c8 would be either rapid blue or a gloss midnight purple

2020-11-22 03:33:19 UTC  

i told my mom the blue was good but couldnt think of the name

2020-11-22 03:33:24 UTC

Yes

2020-11-22 03:34:11 UTC

2020-11-22 03:34:21 UTC

2020-11-22 03:34:31 UTC  

first time i saw the supra i was in shock because it had just come out and youtubers barely began reviewing

2020-11-22 03:37:49 UTC  

I saw one on the highway going the opposite direction when they were first hitting the dealerships

2020-11-22 05:31:33 UTC  

Should you buy used or new?

2020-11-22 05:31:54 UTC  

Bigger question is: Should you buy a car?

2020-11-22 06:17:31 UTC  

@Rocci id have an old house and an expensive house rather than a nice house old cheap car

2020-11-22 07:06:28 UTC  

That depends on what you prioritize. A used car is a better "investment" of money, provided everything works as it should (and acknowledging that cars are not investments due to near immediate loss of value, more so with brand new cars)

However, if you buy a car new, it's all but guaranteed that it works like it should and won't require serious maintenance for a while. And if it does, usually it's covered by warranty.

Finally, if you value experience, get a car for cheap that needs work and do the work yourself to get it running. There's no better way to gain knowledge on car maintenance.

I love my 2003-2006 Ford trucks

2020-11-22 10:15:26 UTC  

V8 5.4L engines are cheap and reliable in my experience with them

2020-11-22 12:55:05 UTC  

the 4 and 8 cylinder goes bad in those pickups

2020-11-22 13:10:23 UTC  

I like the new generation of Ram Cummins trucks. Anyone know if those are reliable?

2020-11-22 17:44:42 UTC  

Just put a turbo on the is300

Taking it to the dyno tomorrow

2020-11-22 20:31:56 UTC  

Just say the word and I’ll write an essay on why I hate the 2021 Mustang

2020-11-22 20:33:59 UTC  

Word

2020-11-22 20:34:24 UTC  

You got it

2020-11-22 20:38:57 UTC  

That's a mustang? It looks like a Subaru CrossTrek in disguise.

2020-11-22 20:44:45 UTC  

@Alpha-57 not a Mustang to me

2020-11-22 20:45:39 UTC  

@iLikeDicedBeans those are nice ass cars, is the is a manual?

2020-11-22 20:46:35 UTC  

Does that Mustang have an electric engine? There's no grille for air intake... won't that defeat the purpose of being a muscle car, especially a Mustang?

2020-11-22 20:48:24 UTC  

It's like if California made a sports car.

2020-11-22 20:50:03 UTC  

Yes

2020-11-22 20:50:28 UTC  

‘Tis powered by the stupidity of electric motors

2020-11-22 20:56:02 UTC  

I like electric motors, especially Formula E cars, but to put one in a so-called Mustang, that's just not right. Muscle cars (and Mustang in particular) have always been known for the throaty growl of the engine through the exhaust.

2020-11-22 20:56:54 UTC  

I wouldn’t be mad if they created an electric Mustang based on the real Mustang

2020-11-22 20:57:07 UTC  

But they made it a crossover which is just wrong

2020-11-22 20:58:14 UTC  

Yeah, why call it a Mustang? Call it a Clydesdale for all I care, but an electric crossover is not a Mustang.

2020-11-22 20:59:23 UTC  

Yeah

2020-11-22 20:59:48 UTC  

I think they should make a new Falcon

An Essay Against the 2021 Mustang

The most iconic car in American history has been scrubbed clean of its roots: the Ford Mustang. With corporations leaning towards carbon-free life backed by electric power, the automotive industry appears to be the next to adhere to this standard. Ford is the first major automotive brand to make a drastic transition to electric automobiles. In this process, Ford is ruining some of the most iconic cars in American history. A prime example of this is the Ford Mustang.
If one were to mention the Ford Mustang in conversation, everyone would picture the performance-centered coupe with the signature triple-line taillights. With the rise of electric cars, Ford wishes to completely destroy this reputation and essentially create a new design from scratch. The 2021 model of the Ford Mustang features a four-door crossover body, all powered electrically. What exactly will the Mustang lose? Firstly, the design reminiscent of a racing horse is taken away. Moreover, the growl of the 5.2 liter V8 engine (or the four-cylinder, depending on the model) has been replaced a silent battery. Most automotive enthusiasts enjoy the sounds a gasoline-powered engine emits and its uniqueness to the specific model. A silent car is, simply put, not as enjoyable. The masculinity and strength of the Mustang is gone; its replacement is the family-friendly, weak, run-of-the-mill electric car.
The once-iconic Ford Mustang and its roots have apparently met their end. America’s most well-known sports car has been replaced by an average family car centered more on carbon cleanliness rather than performance. Oddly enough, it appears the direction taken by this model is similar to the average male; once strong and masculine, now weak and scared and depressing. In conclusion, this car (if I dare compare it to a real car) is a downgrade from the Mustang we all knew.

And this hunk of metal is $14,000 more than the 2020 gas-powered model!
