Let's get back to the real cars and take a shit on Gas Babys.>2.0 turbo diesel>Manual>Plenty of room for passengers and cargo>Up to American 65MPG Absolutely livid I can't have one here in America. First thing I'd do is delete the emissions , upgrade turbo and injectors and enjoy it with a nice tune. But what is a "Gas Baby"? Gas Babies :>Can't comprehend how compression ignition works>Can't comprehend running waste fluids as fuel>Whine and cry when you talk about an ICE that doesn't utilize sparkplugs>Don't understand that gasoline engines aren't practical or best use case for EVERYTHING vehicle.>Perpetuate myths about alternative fuel technology>Can't comprehend you don't need functional glow plugs or grid heater>Can't comprehend mechanical simplicity of analog injection pumps.
look bro, flying is just the new featuredoes your Bugatti fly?
>>29124268Aren't those essentially just the passat/jetta sportwagen?
>>29124291They share a lot of the VAG parts bin but made by Czech and some parts are unique to them. But yeah the actual power trains are 100% VAG
>>29124268skodas are neat, but diesel will always be for poors and weirdos
>>29124430>more expensive fuel than gasoline>more expensive to buy new or used than gasoline>more expensive maintenance than gasolineYou've never owned one, clearly. They're not actually cheaper unless you're driving 1000km+ on the reg.
>>29124436The only way for me to save money on my commute is to buy a hybrid, considering how sketchy used ones can be I say I made the reasonable purchase of a VW product. Also, Gas Babies like to forget that almost all cargo in the world is moved by diesel fuel. LS swap a Mercedes or Freightliner truck and tell me how well it wants to move 60,000 pounds across a country.
>>29124268i love skoda, they are trying very hard, and the shit they add to cars are cool. but there are ZERO decent powertrains left in VAGits all direct injection and 3cyl cuck engines and turbos (on the back of the engine, ofc, becuase fuck you) and dry clutch DSG shit>inb4 u can get it as a manualyea, with a 3cyl turboslop engine>inb4 the gti engine isnt so badonly comes with dsg, and its still direct injection, and like all other vag products, the turbo is on the back, so good luck maintaining itplus, by the time you've specced it with the gti engine, its more money than a model y, which mogs it brutally in every regard>inb4 dieselare u kidding? a DIESEL? with all the stuff they've added to them for emissions? might as well take all ur money to the casino, at least you might get a golddigger to give u chlamydia for your trouble. its a real shame tho. powertains aside, i really like their shit.<3 superb
>>29124268It's just a slightly bigger Golf with chealer interior, you're not missing out on much
Awww, melty?
>>29124268>Let's get back to the real cars and take a shit on Gas Babys.>>2.0 turbo dieselgonna be honest m8 I didnt even bother to read beyond thissorry you feel so tilted
>>29124567>ebonics
>>29124539You can literally delete and tune that out. In fact you can scrap all the emissions stuff and it basically pays for the tune and delete kit. You don't live in a cuckold emissions testing area, do you anon?
>>29124687>you don't live in a cuckold emissions testing area, do you anon?oh, like literally 100% of the 1st world, minus a few us states?'fraid i do.
>>29124268Don't wanna sound like a gas baby but these had 5.0 V8s and optional 4 speed manual
>>29124690My state only tests gasoline cars. Electric and diesel are exempt.
>>29124627>illiterate
>>29124268Diesel fags can't comprehend making power without a turbo
>>29124691Based >>29124702Torque is measurement of power, horsepower is measurement of power applied at time. An NA 7.3 IDI makes more torque than a similar displacement 460 but less horse. To be super extreme with this argument Case made a steam tractor with 102 Horsepower but measures THOUSANDS of pounds of torque.
>>29124699I know, it's a real epidemic amongst them. What can ya do?
>>2912426880's toyota hilux with the 2.4 diesel. That engine was also put in some of their sedans in select years in the Japanese Market. I really like the ford barra too. Im really not impressed by the Tesla because we've basically had this technology to do it for decades.
cp4 disco party all injectors invited
>>29124268Look dude I still prefer gas over EV, but if I have to choose between the Roadster and anything by VAG...I'd take the Roadster every time, and it's not even close. lmao
>>29124274>look bro, flying is just the new featureAll great and marvelous, until everybody has one and flying will become unenjoyable now that every mouthbreathing droolmonkey has one.
>>29125722Imagine trying to hang out in your flat and some sand nigger crashes into your home, killing your cat because the camel jockey thought it would be cute to use the flying feature
>>29126918John Wick, but it was because of a cat instead of a puppy
>straight 8>3 on the tree manual >No cumpootersReal car
>>29124268>>Don't understand that gasoline engines aren't practical or best use case for EVERYTHING vehicle.But this doesnt apply to diesel?
>>29128066>Audi TDI V10 forced Le Mans to change rules to make sure it stopped winning.>VAG commuter cars well documented to have extreme fuel economy and range. (+1000 miles in some cases)>Land speed truck record was held by a Dodge Dakota with a cummins engine for almost two decadesDiesel pretty practical if you ask me..maybe unless you want to keep the DPF and exclusively do small 5 minute trips with it.
>>29128105LeMans changed the rules to ban Ford's 427 during the GT winning streak. >Land speed truck record was held by a Dodge Dakota with a cummins engine for almost two decades>Diesel Pickup class.>217mphSo weird that you have to pick an obscure class when Hemi engines had already surpassed 400mph at Bonneville before that truck was built.>fuel mileageAhh, the poorfag cope again.Which doesnt even matter today with diesel prices.
>>29128233The 427 cammer is a fantastic engine. Your rebuttal only reinforces my point.>So weird that you have to pick an obscure class when Hemi engines had already surpassed 400mph at Bonneville before that truck was built.Yeah in a speciality vehicle that's designed to resemble a bullet, not an actual production chassis.>Ahh, the poorfag copeYou're the one coping. I've met a few multi millionaires in my day. Some flash their wealth and got a 50-50 income to debt ratio. Others still daily a '98 Toyota Camry or a 2004 Jetta TDI Wagon
