that's pretty much how Americans think though. Back in 08 they'd suck you off to get rid of an SUV at scrap value. now I see old overpriced hummers (H2/H3) driving around on donk wheels daily. burbs are even more numerous.
>>16973053
>Back in 08 they'd suck you off to get rid of an SUV at scrap value.
And yet the Ford F-150 was still the best selling vehicle in America during the recession.
Nice memes though.

Daily reminder that a LT4 crate engine puts out more power than a GTR's 3.8tt while being lighter and more reliable. It's also fuckloads cheaper to get a V8 into 4 figure HP levels than any other engine configuration.

Unfortunately for you and your graph, the entire auto industry dropped like a stone but the Ford F-series was still the best selling vehicle in America during the recession including passenger cars.

Apple sells a fuckload too, Doesn't mean it's not shit... It's called fanboyism. They sell so much because the truck falls apart after 4 years if your lucky.
>>16973131
Yes and?
I drive a V8 because i want to and because this is America, where i'm free drive the biggest gas guzzler i want without so much as a passing glance by the five oh you fucking commie.
Cuba is south of Florida and take your fucking "need"s with you.
>>16973131
Sure the l4 has *enough* power to get you there, but it has to really work for that power. That means that it will likely have issues sooner than a V8 that has more than enough power but barely has to work for it.
Therefore I need a V8 because I want a reliable engine that wont shit the bed in 4/5 years.

>>16973482
downtuned to meet emissions, nests of emissions equipment that worked half the time maybe
A lot of manufacturers lied about their output for insurance and safety reasons. I think the 428 Cobra Jet made something like 410 horsepower
>>16973501
still a v6 and still sounds like shit. What alot of bench racers fail to realise is that most people have to live with these cars. I'd personally like to hear the sweet rumble of a v8 with supercharger whine than a v6 with turbos.

Apples to oranges. You're comparing forced induction motors to naturally aspirated ones. A forced induction V8 beats anything that isn't larger than 8 cylinders.

V8's aren't dying but they're definitely getting more expensive and unreachable.
That feel when live in NYC and daily a 5.0 mustang. That glorious sound and torque doesn't compare to anything I've ever driven or owned. I embarrass M3/M4 BMW's all the time when they try to rev on me, it's a ton of fun.
Also, that feel when always have dick-swinging rev contests with fellow V8's. On my way home today a modded 1980s Buick Regal v8 and I were exchanging lovely V8 growls. It was so satisfying, we both gave eachother a thumbs up.
I really can't see myself going back to a V6/i4.

As long as ford, Dodge Ram, and GM are are still making cars, no. America just loves their V8 too much. plus it's arguably the best configuration for going really fucking fast (see koenigsegg one:1) or pulling something really fucking heavy (see most 'murican trucks) (excluding diesels).
