$240K? Vettes

+

I posted that with a bit of tongue-n-cheek,, how vetts have skyrocketed in price.

For me, a used black C6 and put a 400cu/in crate motor in with 620hp normally aspirated.
having high rpms, say 7000 redline. 6-speed manual

maybe $60K if done right

If you want any of them under the Christmas tree this year, probably have to reach good 5~10% further into your pockets
and that's a maybe by Christmas

Scrooge can afford that. He's obscenely wealthy.

What an amazing machine.

Hopefully individual controls are on the air conditioner, etc. in case the control screen misbehaves.

As a tall person, that height inside is fantastic.

If only Ford offered a rear hatch that used a full width rear glass for better visibility.

The bug screen system is so nice!

All wheel drive!

Price for the 22 footer and 20'?

AWD Ontour 2.2 MSRP: $206,206 .... Pleasure-Way AWD Ontour 2.2

AWD Ontour 2.0 MSRP: $195,000 .... Pleasure-Way AWD Ontour 2.0

Pleasure-Way (as many Class B manufacture's) installs rear cameras. But the body and chassis is based on the Ford Transit 350 AWD Van Chassis. Using a gas 3.5L EcoBoost® V6 under the hood, and a 10-speed SelectShift® automatic transmission.

Btw, IMO, a person should add around $2 to 4K for some personal mods.

It was a tussle getting it installed. Thankfully, it was only 90 degrees today, and yes, we were in direct sunlight.

1960 292 ci V8 Y block

The owner was finally able to procure all the needed documents for the lost title. The difficulty was due to the truck being last titled/registered in Montana.

He's been holding off on ordering the needed parts until the paperwork is in order.

The owner is a friend of mine.

I'm still installing the lighting for Mom's patio. I'm really learning the hard way that that part of the project should've been completed as soon as the painting was completed.

I don't usually use the word AWESOME, but when it's called for .... 262 MPH!

I have shoes.

 

[bluflaam777]

^but are they electric?

Went to Pikes Peak in the late 80's, it was mostly still dirt.
No electrics back then either.

Fassst Forward to 2025 (Romain Dumas was a factory Porsche driver back in the day)

 

[Galane]

When battery tech gets good enough, I bet one of these will nuke the speed record for Pikes Peak.

Back in the 70s, we called it wailing the wand.

RAM will have a mid-sized truck in 2027
may not look exactly like this, but I'm surprisingly interested.
I'll take a 2.5L turbo diesel, 7 speed auto

I know you guys have seen our 17-year-old Caddy before ..... but, gosh darn it, she's just so pretty I have to share her again.

It would be great if more members posted pictures of their own autos. :poke:

That's a nice shot

Thanks much!

....mans is flexing on all aspects of life.

$7k car is not much of a flex. :geek: It does have new tires, though. So, I got that going for me. Which is nice. :yellowlaugh:
