iamsuperdan Posted July 12, 2017 Posted July 12, 2017 After being a Ram guy for a long, long time...I made a switch to the dark side. Sold my 2017 Power Wagon. HD trucks are hard to find here in western Canada right now, for a number of reasons. I used all of my resources, but couldn't find the right Ram 3500. I then searched for a GMC or Chev, but those are even harder to source, and a lot of my dealers won't sell their Duramax trucks to fleet clients right now. So that leaves only one option. This is my new 2017 Ford F350 Platinum. Pretty much full load with the Power Stroke diesel. I added a BakFlip tonneau cover, clear 3M stoneguard, Drexler ceramic paint protection, and a set of Nitto Terra Grappler G2 tires in a slightly larger than stock size. Should handle things easily this summer. Kind of dwarfs my '97 K1500!

oldcarfan Posted July 15, 2017 Posted July 15, 2017 I just got a new to me DD, a 2008 Volvo V50. The thing's feels like a tank, thought it only weighs 3300 pounds. My Saab got squished by a runaway texter and I used the insurance check to get this car and a 2000 Volvo S70 because my new-driver son needed something to drive and apparently I needed something to waste money on! Lol, but not really....
charger74 Posted July 15, 2017 Posted July 15, 2017 This is my toy !! Its a 1974 dodge charger SE. I've had it for 19 years now
Dann Tier Posted July 15, 2017 Posted July 15, 2017 Been drivin' this a fair bit lately... EXTREMELY cool!!!, in my opinion, they can NEVER design anything better than this one!!
Ace-Garageguy Posted July 16, 2017 Posted July 16, 2017 (edited) EXTREMELY cool!!!, in my opinion, they can NEVER design anything better than this one!! I agree 100%. The GT40 does it for me visually like nothing else on the planet. This particular car is the CAV version out of South Africa, and it has some deviations from the real-car specs that I disapprove of, like using stainless steel for the chassis structure. This car has already had a major structural failure due to metal fatigue. The fiberglass body panels are unnecessarily thick and heavy. Also, the NACA duct in the center of the cowl is fake, and the gearbox is Porsche 944 Turbo / Audi truck. Still, I could somehow suffer through having to drive it every day. When I was testing it recently, I thought the clutch was slipping as I pushed it hard going into 4th gear. My chase-car driver said no, the rear tires were smoking. The Superformance version, also from South Africa, is much closer to the real cars...so if you have a choice... Edited July 16, 2017 by Ace-Garageguy
cobraman Posted July 16, 2017 Posted July 16, 2017 EXTREMELY cool!!!, in my opinion, they can NEVER design anything better than this one!! Excuse me, but are you perhaps forgetting the A.C. Cobra ?
Ace-Garageguy Posted July 16, 2017 Posted July 16, 2017 Excuse me, but are you perhaps forgetting the A.C. Cobra ? I have to agree. There's nothing more perfect for proportion and line among front-engined cars than a real 427 Cobra. Kind of a shame so many of the kit-car versions mess with the looks...and inevitably spoil them.
Dann Tier Posted July 16, 2017 Posted July 16, 2017 Excuse me, but are you perhaps forgetting the A.C. Cobra ? I meant out of all the variations/years of the GT40......LOL

peekay Posted July 29, 2017 Posted July 29, 2017 The wife and I just bought this, a VW UP! (their exclamation mark). I know it won't appeal to most of you but we love it. Quite perky considering its 3 cylinder 60 hp motor, corners well and generally drives more grown up than it looks. Hosted on Fotki
Tom Geiger Posted July 29, 2017 Posted July 29, 2017 Interesting Peter! They are not available in the USA.
tbill Posted July 29, 2017 Posted July 29, 2017 Been raining for what seems like forever around here, but I got to drive the 55 to work today after not driving it for a month, felt good to cruise in some old iron for a change.
CFMgarage Posted July 29, 2017 Posted July 29, 2017 Here's my new baby...picked her up 3 months ago and did some modifications immediately. My first brand new car purchase, 2017 Dodge Challenger R/T (6sp manual) in Destroyer gray. In the first 3 months, I lowered it on H&R Super Sport lowering springs, added an SRT front air dam (lip), added different wheels and beefier rear tires (hellcat size 275/40r20), and installed a Flowmaster Outlaw exhaust system. Many more modifications to come including a whipple supercharger and possibly even a fully forged bottom end. Hope you all like it.

Junkman Posted August 14, 2017 Posted August 14, 2017 I think I bought this a little. Green Motoring, all 224 Inches of it!
Junkman Posted August 14, 2017 Posted August 14, 2017 Oh, and I brought this over from Germany back in June.
