    Miles per gallon.

    Miles per gallon.

    you guys are funny! As a Canadian we do use the Liters/100Km. that's kind of tough to really picture, 100 kms is 62 miles. My Burb is American and it's in miles but it also has Kms. the sierra is Canadian and has Kms but also has miles. my sierra is primarily a farm truck and I have not paid...

    My buddy has the 2.0 in his 2018 Elantra. the transplanted 120 000 km engine, only had the fluids changed and any gasket that would not be easily accessible later. so far, so good. but it is a completely different engine than this one.

    No heat with Big Radiator and Electric fans

    I agree and that's exactly my understanding. When do you think a lower thermostat is a good idea? is it in extremely hot, desert like environments like Arizona?

    Theres front wheel drive LS 5.3 Impalas. ever seen the 1000HP impala with 2 engines and 2 completely independent drivetrains? one in the front and one in the rear. it can do instant burn outs by putting the front in drive and the rear in reverse. that's some crazy ass shìt! that was also how...

    Hyundai wont touch it. my buddy has a 2018, the engine started hammering and sucked up/burnt up/vaporized ALL of the oil and then she seized! all within 20 minutes. there was oil in it as he had just done an oil change like a month prior but he admittedly doesn't check his oil everyday like I...

    No heat with Big Radiator and Electric fans

    the only reason that sticks out to me as I remember my dad testing and measuring the temp they would open at and replacing it if it was not right. my dad never replaced parts for the hell of it and I have seen him do this like 100 times. because of my dad I grew up with a wrench in my hand...
