"Shit just saw this. It's a VR6. It's sort of in between. The cylinders are inline but there's a narrow 15 degree angle that's used to stagger them to make the motor length shorter. Whatever the German word for the VR abbreviation means "in a line". So I'd call it an in-line based on that."

Vee-Reihenmotor 6

translation
V Inline 6

so I guess you could call it either.

The rear is an 8 3/4 from a 70 Roadrunner and now features a Powertrax Grip Pro and 3:55 gears. Under the hood is a 400 big block with an Isky Mega cam, Holley Street Dominator Intake and Holley 650 Double Pumper carb. Hooker headers with cutouts for the drag strip.







1979 Chrysler Cordoba. I haven't got this one out of storage yet, so eatzza old pic. I didn't change much under the hood, just removed the Lean Burn emissions system and replaced the distributor and added Hooker headers. Out back is a Spicer Traction Lock with 3:23 gears.



See ya tomorrow, suckers.

How’s the rich Corinthian leather?

The only reason you smoked that rear end is that you failed to install 4.10s'.

2020 GTI

I love it, had it since last fall. I used to be a manual guy but the DGT trans is awesome. I can haul stuff when needed and have fun all the time.

Check back with me in a few years as it’s my first VW

A paid off 2010 Mercury Mariner and my wife has a 2018 Chevy Equinox.

Still in the Grand Cherokee. Thinking about picking up a Bronco Badlands end of summer. But you know that already.

Dodge Challenger. 360 bored 30 over, mild cam, Edelbrock 600 cfm carb and intake. Headers and 3 inch exhaust. Not surprisingly, my best sounding and fastest car.

Not very good. These cars are Corinthian leather delete.

Major stiffie ride!!!

Still driving the 2013 Mini that I bought in 2014.


I now have over 120K miles..

Traded the Lexus in on this:

I bet that is fun to zip around in, and looks like you take good care of it too.

It has a Sport Mode that tightens up the steering and give it faster pickup - when you hit the gas, you get thrown back in your seat.
I work in Queens, NYC and my company just moved to an industrial area with very little parking... I can always find a spot to squeeze in while, my coworkers spend 30 minutes looking for a space for their SUVs.

Only thing I don't like about my Mini is that, it doesn't have noise insulation so, you hear a lot of road noise and I have to blast the stereo. Wish I had known to ask the dealer about noise insulation cause, I would have paid more to get it.

That pic is from 2014... it still looks the same except, it now has a roof rack.

Another good thing about having a small car is that, I can't drive my drummer to gigs - he has to go with the singer!
There's enough room for all my gear and the bass players. You can easily fit a 412, head, pedal board, and two guitars, with a little room to spare.

Can't wait to load the goons in the back

It's definitely not a replacement for the full size Ford master life but, kinda like your Mustang, it's a semi practical daily to go with the full size.

We are both driving Camrys right now. Hers is a 2011 and mine is a 2018. Meh.

We are planning on going after a meeting 4Runner or Highlander here shortly. The roads in the med center area/downtown are garbage so an SUV would be nice. I like the 4Runner TRD a lot but the Highlander’s roof vents would be nice for kids.

The 4Runner is freakin sweet, the Highlander has all the cool factor of a mini van without the practicality.

Those TRD Pros are really hard to come by right now, and are selling for full MSRP most of the time.

My uncle has one of them TRD pros and it fucks hard

Super dope trucks/SUVs. Would absolutely fuck with one.

2017 Toyota Tacoma. Put a 2/1 level lift (Billstein struts with Old Man Emu coils on the front and a leveling block on the back) on it. Once my tires need replaced I’m going to upgrade to 17” rims with high wall tires so it’ll lift it quite a bit more. I also added puddle lights and Morimoto HID headlights to blind oncoming traffic. Ignore our POS driveway. I want to replace it now but the wife wants to remodel the living room and kitchen first, so this will look like poverty for a while longer.

Speaking of the wife, she’s got a pretty badass 4Runner Off Road. I love my Tacoma but the 4Runner has a better motor.

Last year even the non-Pro Tacomas and 4Runners were selling for over MSRP.

Doesn’t surprise me at all. Super bad ass rides.

The limited color TRD Pro models are boner inducing.
