I have $6-7k CAD (the shit currency) to spend on an suv and I'm leaning towards 4th gen 4runners
>dat 2uz v8

>Toyota reliability

Is there anything better under $7k CAD ($5k USD) that's as capable or better offroad?

Are you aware of the latest cuckening in the "Land of the Free™"?

https://www.sema.org/news/2016/02/08/epa-seeks-to-prohibit-conversion-of-vehicles-into-racecars

>EPA has proposed a regulation to prohibit conversion of vehicles originally designed for on-road use into racecars.

>The regulation would also make the sale of certain products for use on such vehicles illegal

>The regulation would impact all vehicle types, including the sports cars, sedans and hatch-backs

Where were you when the american car scene died because they will take everything the government throws at them, as long as the media tells them its ok?

Hey /o/, I'm bored and need to express my gratitude towards the Ford Motor Company and all of their success they've achieved in the last decade. I truly believe Ford is at is all time best right now.

Oh, what?
You don't believe me?
b-but muh Zo6
b-but muh Hellcat
b-but muh WRX
Sorry, but having one gleeming turd among a pile of trash does not make your favorite car manufacturer good (nevermind the fact the Zo6 is a unreliable pos, Hellcat is pigfat, and WRX is overpriced cheap Japcrap). What really makes Ford the GoaT at the moment is that EVERY single one of their models is the best in their class in terms of efficiency, power, handling, reliability and price.

Let me show it to you if you still don't believe me.

>FiST
Stupid cheap, great power, luxury build quality, and WRX killing handling

>FoST
Incredible bargain, lightweight, manual standard

>FoRS
Most powerful hatchback ever sold in America, manual, AWD, supercar like quickness and speed

>Fusion
Super luxurious, great build quality, and great reliability

>Mustang
Great range of engine options that are all best in it's class, not very pigfat and best handling muscle car ever made

>Taurus
Available 350hp AWD SHO, big and lightweight (unlike the Challenger and Charger), great sport styling

>Explorer
Used by PDs, so you know it has to be good and reliable. Very sporty and fun to drive.

>Flex
great fuel economy for best looking SUV on the market, HUGE interior, 300 hp.

>Expedition
V8 powwaaa, body on frame beast, practically unkillable

>F150
Possibly the most innovative truck the industry has ever seen, class leading power out of a awesome V6, VERY quick for it's weight and size, best in class in payload and towing capacity. BEST SELLING TRUCK FOR 40 YEARS

>Super Duty
Like the F150, leads its competitors in almost every conceivable way. Known as the standard of the class for a good fucking reason. Also extremely reliable.

How was your weekend?

>What is a "Hot Hatch"?
A Hot Hatch is a manufacturer produced, performance oriented variant of a standard hatchback, designed for improved handling, increased top speed, acceleration and generally enhance the driving experience.

>Are all Hot Hatches FWD?
No. Whilst most Hot Hatches are FWD, some are AWD or even RWD.

>Isn't FWD shit?
No. Just because you can't get the arse out by stamping on the accelerator doesn't mean you can't have fun.

>Aren't Hot Hatches just for Europoors?
No; with the launch of the Fiesta and Focus ST in the US, it seems like the Hot Hatch is beginning to take of on the other side of the Atlantic, but Europoors definitely have more choice.

>Is the Fiesta ST actually good?
The Fiesta ST is one of the best small hot hatches on offer at the minute; so yeah they're pretty good.

Damn, these threads are going by fast as hell now, and here I was planning on 30 being the last.

Quick Summary: Telling the truth about how you make money to dear ol Dad


.>>14326542
Might as well be truthful about it, Dad is usually cool with these kind of things worst you expect is some warnings or something.

"Built it to run 'shine, that's how I've kept money in my pocket."

You don't know what reaction you were expecting, but it wasn't a chuckle.

"Guess apple don't far from the tree does it? Next thing y'know you'll be drivin' around in a Henry J."

"Uhh, actually, the car I just bought is a Henry J."

That chuckle is full blown laughter now.

"Oh God, bet you got a kid runnin' around somewhere already don't you? You gonna get a '82 Valiant or whatever they makin' in 13 years?"

“N-no I don’t, and hey who knows, might get a Road Runner if those are still bein’ made. Valiant's ain't my thing."

After he stops laughing he goes back to being reletively neutral.

"I figured you was up to somethin' the law didn't like in that car if you wasn't a drivin' it around, all I have to say is don't expect me ta bail you out if you get caught."

"You never got caught did you, I don't plan on it either."

"Naw, but the law's got smarter since then...even ol' Teague."

Yeah, things could get rough if they all start getting radios, you can only assume the police are going to be talking about last night and looking for both you and Erika. Should probably try to do something with the Packard's paint at the least.

"Maybe your son's smarter than you!" you joke "Seriously though, I'll be careful, g'night."

You start to go to your room to call it a night when Dad grabs you by the arm.

"You didn't hear it from me, but maybe Paul up at the farm could use a driver." he says with a wink "Their brother used ta drive but he got caught."

"Hmm, thanks, maybe I'll head up there if I have the time."
