The six speed manual? Now that's cool.

Yeah. That engine must have a very narrow power band to

need 6 speeds.
Is it also available with a dump truck body?


If ya can't find 'em, grind 'em.

Why assume a narrow power band, why not a higher top speed
and better passing gear? I drove a 5 speed for year that
topped out at ~150 and wished many times for a sixth gear.



I like my 18 speed Roadranger. I must have a narrow power
band, huh?

You got her a diesel? Do you guys have self serve stations
like we do? Many stations sell diesel?

I cannot

really drive a
Lexus!



Donal...we can clearly learn a lot from you. Please

direct us to a page
showing the current Lexus minivan. I must have missed it.

these for my
wife a few months back?

That car was a 911S, the manual said it should do 155 IIRC.

Again, I'll ask, where did you ever drive at 150 mph besides in your

Shall we take this as admission that you're a lamer that
never actually does anything, just daydreams?

Some of us have actual lives and really get out & do cool
stuff. I can understand why you're so resentful & bitter.

According to BB's rules of engineering, that power band
would be about as wide as an RC hair.

I thought that your wife earned enough to buy her own car??? Why would you
have to buy her a car?

I still can't even figure out why you married a woman. I

don't
understand much of anything.


And you never will......

She gave him the money and sent him to pick it up. Makes
him feel a little less useless that way.

Hey, now that would be good....I could have spent another

winter
skiing in France ;-)



While she stays home, right? I'm sure she would have
appreciated that much much more than a new car.
