Why do you need a big engine? Especially for 'highway'? My car does 3k RPM at 70MPH and it's quiet enough

Fin, you just have to realize that cars are simply larger over here. The reasons are numerous, and many of them amount to retardation, but it's the design that prevails. They're cheaper to buy due to their availability, and Shifty may as well buy whatever large ass car he feels fit.Finray wrote:

5.7L as your first car .. what the fuck

Yeah the price of fuel in UK is bullshit (£6.75/$10.80) for a gallon I'll give you that, but that's no excuse. You're still saving money with a smaller, more economical engineJay wrote:

So? People can buy hybrids or econobox shitcars if they want. Or they can buy a gas guzzling behemoth and spend their paycheck on gas. Who cares? It's their choice.Finray wrote:

This is just one of many options. I'm going to contact them and ask for a time I can just come over and check it out. If anything seems fishy I'm out. I won't purchase it on the spot though. I'd still want to check out other vehicles too, that would just be one vehicle on my list of potential purchases.

Thank you,Tara
Have a nice day!"
What do you guys think? that's pretty cheap for a pickup that's only 8 years old.
I already told you, autotrader.com. That's it.
This is a scam. You are dumb. That is all.
Younger drivers are going to get in accidents regardless of the size of the engine. You're telling me that a person driving a 2L turbo charged vs a 5L V8 is inherently less likely to get in an accident? Bullshit. If the kid is stupid and wants to race, he'll be prone to more accidents. A V6 pickup truck is not a racing vehicle. Why even try to make that logic fit the discussion?Camm wrote:

don't purchase anything on the spot. Come to an agreement with the seller on a neutral party mechanic that will do a simple checkup and see if there are any issues found. I've never heard of anyone being able to just look at a car/engine and decide that it's good to go.-Sh1fty- wrote:

5L V8 versus a 2L turbo? Probably not a lot of difference. 2L turbo is still a massive, overpowered engine for a first car.Jay wrote:
