I think this car will have now rival if it is produced:

And i think it will be now that the other two american car companies have models that are competing with the viper performance wise.
If those projected numbers are correct this thing will smash all kinds of production car records.
850hp 850torque 2800lbs 0-60 2.9secs. Looks like a NSX on PCP.

I've posted a real truck for ya.

That's not a truck.

That is a 4-wheel automotive small penis compensation device.

Ridgeline.

It's sure to be a winner. All that Honda does turns to gold. Now, they just need to throw in a manual option. *j/k*

I recently acquired a '98 Prelude with 60K and am thrilled with it. I miss my CL-S, but it's good to be back to a high-revving 4 cylinder. There's something magic about that Honda chirp when you first start it up.

So I try and I scream and I beg and I sigh
Just to prove I'm alive, and it's alright
'Cause tonight there's a way I'll make light of my treacherous life
Make light!

Why are vehicles getting bigger as gas prices are getting higher?

I get 21 mpg in my jeep and that bites! These vehicles that get less than 20 (how do you do it, AD? 17mpg!) make my whimper every time I pass a gas station.

For what it is, this one gets good mileage, compared to domestic competition like the Ford Explorer Sportrac.

IMO gas prices are only half the equation. The number of mile driven is the other half.Ten miles/gal bad ,10 miles/week not to bad.

If you've ever seen an Iveco Turbo Daily in the body on frame configuration you will know what I'm referring to.
You will find they do wonders with a 'measly' 2.5 litre turbo diesel engine - and that is in countries where the highway speed limit is significantly higher than in North America.

Those would be the ones doing 70-80 kph (on the flats - hills REALLY slow them down) on the autobahn when the rest of the traffic is doing 120+ kph.... Yes, they're good for economy, but that's it.
