Welcome to the IHoP v.2

Recommended Posts

Seth will tell you the XC60 is a wreck. Probably the same with the Escape though.

Our Volvo's have been bombproof though, I would avoid the first two years of any body style like hell but that can apply to any manufacturer.

Seth what do you feel about overly electronic dependant V10's made bespoke for one vehicle?

Good investment right?

8 cylinders can get more HP for less fuel. But they don't revv to 8250 RPM and the don't sound like that.

Would be cheaper to walk away and leave the keys in it. ;)

What I don't get is what makes Audi sound so good. The V8 in the old S5 is still one of the best sounding vehicles ever.

Completely opposite to the near terrifying rasp and crackle the V10 has.

Agreed, RS Audi V8 is one of the best sounding V8's ever

Volvo is probably a dream, but what about the T6 turbo compared to the non turbo. I would like shy away from turbo because of maintenance and mpg, but if I ever saw a can't pass deal...

That thing produces no torque compared to the Benz. Why do I like it more than the E55?

I like forced induction and short bursts of driving like a maniac. That means I'm supposed to still want the E55.

Watching the first episode of the new Cosmos series. They did a fantastic job on it.

That was my one hour break this weekend from work.  Worth it, even just for the fact that it reminded me how much I love astronomy.  Huge reason why I do a number of BOINC projects that focus on it.
