There are dogleg four-, five-, and six-speeds too.

Volvo Drops Cars from a Crane for Rescue Training I'm guessing they dropped the cars 30 meters and the US press picked it up as 100 feet. I feel safer now, knowing that if I'm ever driving through a junkyard in Sweden and the evil guy picks my vehicle up with a magnet and then drops it from 30 mete...

I like the Datona. Is it RWD?

Only if some very extensive surgery has been done.

That's not OP. This is page 2. It reads like a bot post...Some odd linguistics ("cannot find true buyer," "mop my cotton sheet," "i stuck with previous one..."), non sequitur with the rest of the topic, and involving a BMW. Probably will come back and add some SEO links to the post or profile after ...

I had the same thoughts regarding the owner.

Isn't he over in Germany right now with a diesel Caravan?

I believe so, yes.

With I-75 undergoing a major reconstruction project in the area between my home and my place of employment, and many of the roads crossing under the freeway experiencing sporadic closures due to freeway overpass construction, it sometimes gets to the point that I have to check with Google Maps on h...

The consensus I'm seeing is that tread separation subsequent to cross-rotation was a problem with early radials, not with bias ply or modern radials, but the yoostabee/myth persists in some circles. All cars will wear the fronts first because they do most of the steering, most of the braking, and (u...

It talks about the Ranger's engine. Ranger itself is not yet in on the party, but may be when it moves to be more heavily based on the Bronco for the next gen.

as IMBoring pointed out, the 1st gear is a creeper gear, probably like in the new Bronco. Not sure if that's their way of skipping having a low range transfer case, nor if it's a good substitute. eye remember them having the 5 speeds with the 1st gear semi-creeper back inn the 90s, but i believe th...

They have the first gear labeled with a C for crawler. It wouldn't normally be used on the road, leaving six commonly used cogs. Power should be fine, though it is unfortunate they don't let you have the six with the manual. I don't feel compelled to skip anything in the six-speed C4, though GM thou...

Automatics have plenty of failure modes, but most of them tend to give at least enough warning that if you pay close attention on a test drive you can reasonably expect to at least get home without pondering having to remove the driveline.

As they should be. Automatics tend to be more expensive to fix when they go bad, but abusing a manual doesn't necessarily require malice and they have more failure modes that can happen suddenly after showing no signs on a test-drive. I've lost two slave cylinders, both going with no warning and nee...

Tacoma has always been a whack-a-mole with the availability of the manual, as far as what packages and options you can get. It's apparently now down to the three TRD trims and not available in the Double Cab long bed.

That gets you Top Tier 91 octane E0 here.

Could be related. I had an evap system code and an intermittent miss on my Grand Marquis. I replaced the part in question and it took a while to clear but all is well again.
