kugel7cSince many people seem to believe you can't tow with cars, here's roughly what dutch people end up doing on vacation.
over_cloxDutch people must not have many steep hills.
We certainly do in the UK and I’ve seen people pulling Caravans up them with their cars. Maybe Europeans are just better drivers than yanks?
Yanks are so accustomed to the idea that “more litres= more torque” that they actually can’t imagine the amount of engineering that’s gone in to smaller more efficient European and Japanese engines.
≈1hp per cc is pretty standard in modern cars but why invest in all that engineering when you can pour cheap gasoline down the throat of you 5 litre V8?
The most popular pickup truck in the US is commonly bought with either a 2.7 liter turbo or 3.5 liter turbo v6, I think you’re a bit behind the times.
In 2018, the average engine in the UK was 1.61L, in 2022 in the US it is 3.42L, but yh, it’s me that’s behind the times.
You’re the one who pointed put the five liter v8 not me.
It’s called hyperbole. Although I wouldn’t say that it’s an extreme exaggeration, the sentiment remains.
And you’re still wrong. Most new cars in the US (other than sports cars) are using small turbocharged four cylinders. But keep trying to act like you know anything about cars in the US, it’s fun to watch.
You can tell me I’m wrong all you want, I showed recent data for average engine sizes in the UK and the US and all you have bought is conjecture.
