Another car thread. Wanting a sports car. Which one?

Naturally, we'll all defend what we have.

 

I still have a work van with the 7.3L and my International Tow truck has the industrial version of the 7.3L. I was just comparing my experiences with two similar aged diesel trucks.

 

Damnit.

 

Yep. Just like how I love my wheels.

 

Wait you named your car a male name? WTF is wrong with you! Always female names for anything fast, beautiful and expensive.

 

You know those were designed to attract the skinny jeans wearing, mocha latte with whipped cream and just a dusting of cinnamon crowd, right??

 

I didn’t want to scare the shit out of the wife on the first day.

 

Reckon I need to get me some skinny jeans then.

 

Only if you get a man bun to complete the look (my wife contributed that part).

 

Fucking man bun

 

I only have the Ford to play with...but I'm always looking at the new offerings from the big three. Sometimes I like the RAM, most times it's a Ford. Until recently, it's never been a Chevy but they straightened out that steering wheel issue so now, yes, Chevy coulda been it. Unfortunately for them and RAM, neither offer an extended cab with only two exterior door handles. But most recently, Ford won't let me put a 7.3 gasser in an XL dually and I have no desire for higher trim levels or SRW.
Unless something changes in the market, the change will occur on the currently owned '02 Lariat LE. We've gotten our money's worth out of it so, if we throw $40K at it, it's basically gonna pay for itself, again.

 

It's why I hesitated to diss them.
I still think they suck, but that's your suckitude.

 

One of (if not THE) main thing I look for in wheels is how hard it will be to keep them clean.

I want as few spokes as possible, not a lot of deep grooves/corners, wide enough between the spokes to get my hand (and washing wand) through, etc.

These check all those boxes.

So as far as I am concerned, they are perfect. I wouldn’t change them if I could.

The wheels on the IS-F look great but they suck to clean. Everything else has a very simple 5 to 6 spoke on it.

 

Yeah...they can keep those for themsevles.

 

Damn those would drive me apeshit!

 

I wouldn't take them even if they were white.
