why doesnt the inline 6 get anymore love in the us, and really a lot of the world now, unless its a fuckhuge diesel or a beemer? surely extending the car an extra foot or so to fit the engine isnt THAT big of an issue? or do people just not care about dat natural balance and muh revs? its not like it can be any more inefficient than a v6, actually it should be moreso since there are no balance shafts and only having to drive 2 cams vs 4 and its not trying to shake itself apart right?
We have v8s and don't pay a metric fuckton for gas. Really no point. More power. More torque. Better power curve. No need for high revs.

The i6 is dying because bean counters consider it a longer v6 that's harder to package in FWD crossovers.

Struggle is real for school; do to some happenings beyond my control I can't afford housing (And technically not school for that matter) so I'm going to live in my car on one of the campus parking lots.
What's some live-in-your-car essentials? I'm guessing a sleeping bag for the winter. Anything else?
Enrollment gives gym membership, so I have shower access.
Bumping out of curiosity, I'd rather pay $1000 for a Ram Van than a dorm or apartment
>>13996486
Dont bother with a sleeping bag. You will be better off with a couple of large/thick blankets. Make a first aid kit, dont buy one. Bandaids, neosporin, apsirin, something for upset stomach, that sort of stuff. Some water and something to snack on. Anything of value goes in the trunk, always. Parking on campus may not be the best thing. Look around to see if there are any warehouseeas nearby that employ lots of people and doesnt have secruity and stay away from any business. (walmart/malls) Good luck.

I will also add that a small bucket for emergencies would be a good thing to have. Like if you have to vomit or have diarrhea in the middle of the night. Put a plastic bag in the bucket. Toss the bag, keep the bucket. You dont want to spray the bushes with liquid shit when its freezing out and risk getting caught doing it.

Going to inquire as to how much mounting and balancing Shinko 705s will run me tomorrow.
Also, the Vickers in WoT sucks in Tier 1 and 2. This is beyond painful.
opinions on the t100?
Vic anon yes the 300 is a LAMS approved bike somehow.
I have no idea how but seeing a first time rider on one of those would be hilarious as fuck

OK guys, it's been a while, thought I would share a few of the better stories from the last month or two
>be walking around on the lot, see older guy (40's-50's) walk up with guy in his late twenties
>older guy asks me to show him the cheapest Corolla we have on the lot
>walk him over and show him said corolla, its a blue LE, decent looking little car, younger dude follows
>start to actually scope these people out.
>older guy looks pretty respectable but the dude in his 20's....
>this motherfucker is full full basement neckbeard, dirty, stained t-shirt, dirty cargo shorts, and flip flops with socks on
>all that's missing is the fedora to tie the whole look together.
>anyways, neckbeard basically looks at the ground the entire time as the older guy and I talk about the car
>come to find out neckbeard is this older man's son, dad is out trying to help him buy a car
>can already tell dad is a little bitter about the entire situation, but don't really know why
>dad finishes looking over the car and seems pleased, asks to test drive it with me, so I go get a dealer plate
>when I get back, neckbeard goes to get in the front seat and his dad snaps "you aren't fucking dirving it, get in the back"
>neckbeard cringes, and gets in the back seat while dad and I get in the front and take the corolla out
>I press the small talk with dad, and start to get him to open up a little bit about the situation
>son bought some car off craigslist with the little bit of savings he had, it was a shit box, and died within a month
>dad is pissed because his son knows fucking nothing about cars and 'bought that piece of shit' without talking to anyone
>dad is out with him going to dealerships now to try and make sure the son doesn't buy another shitbox
>test drive goes well, we get back to the dealership, and the dad want's to go inside and talk numbers
>sounds good, I get the info off the car, and we go into my office to start to talk things over.

Why don't you educate yourself on performance vehicles a little before making any kind of claims on what should be called a good engine?
