Always have been my friend, growing up in religion and studying it has made me who I am that says god does not exist. LOL, my sarcasm against my sister bible thumping is another thing all together.

So today I got a text message from a sister who is a bit holy roller. I'm on my way to get a spiritual work out and probably a spiritual spanking while we are at it. My response: Does the spiritual really show up or just the hypocrites? Am I wrong? ?

G. David Felt replied to Drew Dowdell's topic in North American International Auto Show in Detroit (NAIAS)Very true, from an auto stand point I agree with you that I think the only use was in Europe, but from a motorcycle stand point many have been done and from a custom kit car stand point Motus built a silky powerful V4 off the Corvette engine design. https://www.motusmotorcycles.com/home Crate Motor info here: https://rorty.net/motus-mv4r-crate-engine Base engine is 180HP / 126 lb-ft of torque. Weird that the Torque is so low when they did in years past offer a 300+ HP and over 350 lb-ft of torque crate motor too. So not sure what has happened, but they are still around.- Detroit 2019: 2019 RAM HD Trucks: Comments
G. David Felt replied to Drew Dowdell's topic in North American International Auto Show in Detroit (NAIAS)If you ever get to drive a quality made straight 6 or 8 they are very smooth, but they take up a ton of space as to why the V design was born to save those long ass noses on auto's. Sad part is you seem to get two different camps when it comes to 4 bangers where some are silky smooth and others are very crude. Perfect example of a crude but powerful straight 4 banger is the Olds Quad 4. I saw racing teams get 1200HP turbo'd out of that engine but it was very rough. Flip side of this is I have seen some very silky smooth V4 engines that are also very compact.- Cadillac News: Cadillac CT6: I'm Not Dead Yet (For U.S.)

G. David Felt replied to Drew Dowdell's topic in North American International Auto Show in Detroit (NAIAS)But, But, But According to the master blaster of all things German and the ultimate German God of all things Auto who invented the auto industry Mercedes-benz, one should throw away a perfectly good design to change it up and let marketing tell you that a straight six turbo'd to 400HP is better than a traditional NA V8 because the Germans said so!- Detroit 2019: Infiniti QX Inspiration Concept: Comments

G. David Felt replied to Drew Dowdell's topic in North American International Auto Show in Detroit (NAIAS)Plus I doubt the Ridgeline could drive through 3 feet of water or has the Frunk, cool behind seats storage place, I am thinking it is on par with the basic full size pickups and might even reach into some areas of the offroad crowd like a Z71.- Detroit 2019: Nissan IM Concept: Comments

G. David Felt replied to William Maley's topic in North American International Auto Show in Detroit (NAIAS)So the QX which was to be shown today decided to be finicky and not drive out after the video. Kinda funny. I like the sleek look, but then it is only an update to the X that was shown with a turbo 4 banger last time and now is fully electric. https://www.pscp.tv/w/1OyKAyomWloKb- Detroit 2019: 2019 Hyundai Elantra GT N-Line: Comments

G. David Felt replied to Drew Dowdell's topic in North American International Auto Show in Detroit (NAIAS)Is it really? Power Wagon for off road adventure, Rivian Adventure Activity Truck for living life. Clearly noticeable differences between the trucks, but one could make a case as to why they would compete in the same segment. Just saying, we redefine market roles all the time. Rivian is big into the outdoors and rock climbing. markets.- Preview: 2020 Toyota Supra: Comments
