I need second opinion on toyota mirai. I live in europe, so hydrogen cost is comparable with petrol and station is less than 3 miles from where I live. And I don't think I can get similarily equipped car for similar money.
usecase is hauling my ass to and from work, around 20 miles each way-most of it via highway.
Actual downsides? How is reliability, how is maintenance? Does is rust easier than other toyotas? Any first or second hand experience with this car?

Same as the pic rel

Ive got a 97 thunderbird Lx 3.8l i got from grandmom. The damn radiator fan isnt coming on. I replaced the fan itself, still not working. Replaced the engine coolant temperature sensor, not working. The fan turns on when i unplug the temperature sensor but turns off when i plug it back in. It briefly turned on one time when i turned the AC on high but then it turned off in 5 seconds and i couldnt get it to turn on again. I swapped the radiator fan relay and nothing happened.

The car also has various other problems like the odometer and speedometer dont work. I figured that was a bad sensor, but now im wondering if the car has a bad ECU? only thing i can think is its got a bad ecu or fucked up wiring somewhere. Any ideas before i go and buy a new ecu? I havent checked the codes yet, never really fucked with code readers and im an idiot when it comes to electrical shit.

The car only has 40,000 miles but it wasnt run for a few years

I didnt know the VSS could fuck with the radiator fan somehow, but if it can then this is likely the issue, because im pretty sure my odometer and speedometer are broke because of something bad with the VSS. I might crawl under there tonight but if not ill report back tomorrow. Thank you for the advice!

This thing looks wicked. I'd like to see it with all the plastic shit ripped off.

My brother gave me his olderish car, and he said I probably should change all the fluids, but apparently to change the transmission fluid it'll be like 500 leaf bucks. But the car has 230,000km on it and apparently he hasn't changed the transmission fluid once. I went to one place and they said I needed it flushed, another said to leave it and just drain, another said to flush.
Internet is a mixed bag on this opinion.

So which is it?

Since we seem to have a constant influx of retards who don't understand how horsepower works, it's time to start a Daily Horsepower Awareness Thread.

Horsepower is a theoretical calculation which takes the possibility of GEARING into account to determine the output capabilities of an engine, it can be used to calculate the WHEEL TORQUE of an engine at a given ROAD SPEED.
No your 100hp smog era shitrod engine isn't putting down more WHEEL TORQUE than the 200hp miata engine just because it has a higher engine torque figure. Because the higher RPM Miata engine can be geared so much lower it will make a higher WHEEL TORQUE figure at the same ROAD SPEED on a dyno.

>Engine A with 100 ft-lbs at 10,000 rpm
>Engine B with 200 ft -lbs at 5,000 rpm
= both the same wheel torque at a given road speed

>Engine A with 200 ft-lbs at 10,000 rpm
>Engine B with 200 ft-lbs at 5,0000 rpm
Engine B will make twice as much wheel torque when geared to the same road speed as engine A.

Literally the only time there's a gap between torque biased engines and RPM biased engines which can't be bridged by gearing, and even then it can be mitigated by an appropriate slipping mechanism, or a flywheel, or both.

>>
>>28935011
You could power a train with a bicycle if you gear it low enough. The problem would be the 0.0000001mph top speed.

>>28935027
Have you seen the size of the generator/alternator in a locomotive? The F1 engine would have nowhere near enough torque to even spin the rotor.
>>
>>28935059
then neither would the corvette engine lmao
>>
>>28935062
I would stand a fuck of a lot better chance considering it makes 5x as much torque as a F1 engine.

Sup dudes,

Never bought a new truck before, looking at pic related because everyone seems all boners for them. I really wanted a 4Runner but the price for a used one with a V6 is absolutely bonkers. The previous one I was considering was 5 years old, priced at 46k and used APR rates are fucking silly so all said and done it would be around 56k. I am a dipshit but that is something I wont do.

I dont NEED a truck, but I cant think of anything else to buy and I loved test driving this thing. I have never owned a low car before, coming from a 1998 Cherokee (RIP) and always wanted something a tad off road ready because I love flying down forest service roads here in the PNW.

The closest dealership near me has a top of the line pro4x for 44k after nissan rebate and dealership rebate. I imagine I could talk them down to like 46-47k OTD? I have no idea. I do have a few hangs up:

I heard the back up camera is kinda ass. Is that true?

How is the resale? Only asking because because POSSIBLY in the future if the Xterra is really cool in about 3 years maybe id trade this in. I'd love to be able to sleep in the back. I guess I could always get a RTT if needed for the frontier.

I have 30k to put down comfortably. I have 110k saved so have quite the oh shit fund.
>buy a house
I live in the PNW shits 560k for a townhouse I dont want to be spending half my monthly take home on a house

My advice anon? Bail on the truck. Get an SUV. If you don’t work labor the cost/reward ratio isn’t really there anymore. You can get a brand new 2025 Grand Cherokee the Chrysler dealers can’t move for 5-10k below MSRP right now. Yeah there are electrical issues but you can get the warranty with enough cash leftover to afford a pretty cool toy like a motorcycle or some shit. The last thing you want is to buy a truck you will immediately be under water on and then two years from now you’re trying to squeeze a car seat into the back of that fucking thing.

>Electricity is really efficient. Something like 99% efficiency.
A battery vehicle is 85-95% efficient.
But here's the thing, batteries just store electricity made elsewhere.
The biggest electricity source worldwide is burning coal to boil water to create steam to spin a turbine with a generator at the end. 25-50% efficiency. Then it has to be modulated for transport, transported, modulated again, and transported to the charger, then into the EV (every single step here has losses, there are even losses in the power lines).
The biggest source in the US is burning natural gas with all the other steps as above. Nat gas is 30-60% efficient (higher if dual-cycle, sorta like a turbo strapped to a power plant).
Sometimes 2/3rds of the efficiency is already lost by the time it gets to the EV. Then EVs weigh a lot so F=ma they use more energy to accelerate the same or maintain speed.

Short wheel base means your car has less desirable pitch and roll and dive and yaw. Which is easy to understand if you think of a teeter totter with two fulcrums very close together or fulcrums far away and it basically becomes a bench. In order to achieve desirable pitch and yaw then the car must be stiffer than one with longer wheel base to achieve similar control of the weight.

The softer your suspension is the better mechanical grip you have. But a short wheel base car is either going to be floaty and wobbly or it’s going to be super stiff which gives you less grip as you bounce over bumps rather than absorb them into the suspension.

The BMW situation has the M2 and M4 using basically the same drivetrain but the M4 has better marital, ie aluminum and steel where the M2 is all steel. Which means that the M4 has a longer wheel base and so has better handling characteristics and a more comfortable ride and the M2 has a stiffer ride and also since it’s all steel it weighs basically the same as the M4. It just has a harder ride relatively with almost no upside.
Physics works out great for bmw since the M8 costs the most and has carbon fiber and aluminum chassis and the best most comfortable ride and similar handling as the other M cars.
Yes the M8 weighs more but I think for anyone short of a pro they would be fastest in the M8 vs the M2.
But in a nutshell the longer wheel base is better but so is lighter weight and that’s where an engineer has to find the right balance. It’s not all about wheelbase. But it’s definitely better to maximize your wheelbase and keep your weight down. The M2 does neither. The M4 balances it very well: the M8 has state of the art weight savings and a longest wheelbase but the weight is still hurting it in lap time under pro conditions vs the M4.
