Yep, I knew dang well that the 'Hawk was going to be slower than the 'Cat in a 60-120, but didn't expect it to be such a large difference that I would run out of straight road. Fun little station wagon, but nothing like the Challenger.

Sorry. I'll try to be more inclusive and get more of them next time.

But I like having motor mounts. Then again, I no longer care for motorcyclists and motorists in general. And I have never been fond of motor homes.

Hey, I have no idea how the Furds work...if they even do. On our Audis the Lie-O-Meter seems to reset itself every night, or whatever the cause for it is. But, by pushing enough buttons they'll tell you what the overall average is. What I'm most used to is the Ram setup, which doesn't record a...

Yep, I can get the distance to empty to show ridiculously high numbers, in anything. All it takes is having a full (or nearly full) tank, then reset the Lie-O-Meter at the beginning a of a reasonably long descent. Heck, I think I've seen over 500 miles to empty after filling the TRX in town...

No need to learn to ride or hang around at boring horse shows, really. Find one to your liking and talk her into getting divorced. Done.

A tape measure should be good enough for getting within 0.25".

The wheel from the vehicle, maybe, but not the tire from the wheel.

Superspeedway.

Hmm. I thought the standard RS6 Avant feels pretty quick. And it sure beats my pickup.

I'm still hoping for the 6-door.

Sorry guys, I only have the one M936 (same basic chassis and such). But do know where to get more.

Some Toyos do. Recently got a set of AT IIIs and thought somebody had smeared some of that miserable tire goop on them.

Simple solution: Don't go so damn slowly. 85 is for when stuck behind someone and waiting for it to be clear to pass. I have paid for eight gears, so I want to use them all.

I would hope that they at least use a Hunter machine with road force balancing. Then, as you pointed out, the machine should be calibrated correctly. And it's quite important that the Smart Weight setting is turned off. Otherwise the tires won't be balanced nearly as well as they could be...

Just saw that someone makes stick-on, remote controlled, cab marker lights.

Well, that one's actually quite stingy with fuel, but as delivered (pictured) is was probably set up for Death Valley, not for 7.500 feet. A simple adjustment of the timing of the injection pump and it doesn't smoke at all.

Whadda you mean pollution? Electricity is perfectly clean. And I can make my own with the diesel generator.

Nope, Japanese, and complete with Toyota engines. And you can buy them new if you want.

No, they make vans, too, but those HiJets (Daihatsu) are little dump bed pickups.
