[rocky heath]

Blud forgot about the Ford five hundred

[harsh nymph]

$27

[fringe sapphire]

Gay

[obsidian bramble]

I guess its gotten cheaper

[merry kiln]

Interesting, if we ever ended up getting a Pentastar V6 on my end, it'd probably either be a Journey or Durango since my younger brother (19) wants an AWD car.

[grizzled lagoon]

I wish they made more of the awd 5.7s that would’ve been like semi convincing

[harsh nymph]

Its just you need to plan further ahead

[desert talon]

That is the biggest amount of bs ive heard this month. The pre-shitlantis chryslers were reliable and the 3.6 pentashart is a disgrace

[fringe sapphire]

V6 Chargers and challengers are awd optional

[grizzled lagoon]

This HAS to be rage bait

[merry kiln]

FR?

[fringe sapphire]

Yep

[merry kiln]

Nope, saw a Caravan with a Pentastar get to 420,000 miles once

[grizzled lagoon]

I’m sure you did

[fringe sapphire]

I'd never own one in a million years

[grizzled lagoon]

A lot of unreliable cars have reached higher miles

[merry kiln]

On the original engine too before the transmission died too

[obsidian bramble]

Ok, no middle of next month for me is still $180

[desert talon]

7 rebuilds,the pentashit V6 is bum fuck awfull

[rocky heath]

Pentastars are literally fine engines, y'all just be hating anything that's not a Buick 3800 or Ford 300 ✌️

[harsh nymph]

What line are you doing

[desert talon]

older 3.3 and 3.8's tho,solid ass engines

[merry kiln]

Facts.

[obsidian bramble]

Tpa-atl as an example

[grizzled lagoon]

Except for the fact that they haven’t updated them since they came out and they still have all of the same problems 20 years later

[fringe sapphire]

Stellantis slop

[obsidian bramble]

Its $180 minimum

I can fly for $90 depending on the day

[merry kiln]

The 3.6 Pentastar aren't bad, they're just not like amazing either though with the right maintenance, you have an amazing car on your hands.

[rocky heath]

We ALL pentastar swapping our cars

[grizzled lagoon]

A gutless V6 with excessive maintenance costs

[desert talon]

We just hate shitlantis ruining everything they touch

[harsh nymph]

Theres no line from Tampa to Atlanta

[obsidian bramble]

Or I can drive there on roughly $160

[fringe sapphire]

Calling anything with a pentastar amazing is a huge stretch

[grizzled lagoon]

I can’t wait until the pentastar swap motor mounts come out for novas man

[harsh nymph]

Youd have to make a stop in north carolina

[obsidian bramble]

Its still way cheaper to fly there then, even with connecting flights

[obsidian bramble]

Same price to drive and takes 1/8th of the time

And thats assuming 10 mpg

[grizzled lagoon]

Genuinely the most beautiful thing I’ve seen all week

[fringe sapphire]

Why have people been j swapping civics when pentastars are more available

[harsh nymph]

Well, its kinda the fault that rail lagged behind in the US

Amtrak is federally owned and makes 0 profit lol, legit they are a debt to the US and they only help take load off of freight lines

[rocky heath]

Pentastars make more power too

[desert talon]

3.3 and 3.8's out of this,damn near bulletproof V6's

[harsh nymph]

Hence why there is so few lines because 90% of US rail is privately owned

So, Amtrak has to pay to use the rail

[desert talon]

Sound meaty aswell with some exhaust mods

[merry kiln]

My mom once had an 03 Grand Caravan Sport, the engine ran forever but it started to develop wheel issues so we sold it

[obsidian bramble]

Its never going to become useful at least to people like me if they continue to operate as is

[harsh nymph]

95%+

[grizzled lagoon]

The only time I’ve ever seen the earlier town and country minivans is rotted into the ground or with all blown out suspension bouncing around with a visibly misaligned front end

[fringe sapphire]

And also have every part possible made of plastic to save weight for added performance, how thoughtful

[rocky heath]

Publicly owned is communism

[harsh nymph]

I would love to see Amtrak extend its network, as I had to take a connecting train to Chicago from where I live

[rocky heath]

Gem nuke

[desert talon]

Here they are the craze,ppl importing these left and right and I love them

[grizzled lagoon]

Yes we love plastic oil coolers, filter housings and oil pans

[obsidian bramble]

Yeah, I forgot too that I'd have to drive 2 hours at least to get to the nearest station

[harsh nymph]

For me, i had to take a train to Chicago, ticket cost me $6.75

[obsidian bramble]

That sounds nice

[harsh nymph]

Chicago rail is really good

[obsidian bramble]

Chicago sucks to drive in and park in so I wouldn't mind doing such a trip

[harsh nymph]

To go gto Milwaukee from where I live its $13.50 with a connecting train in Chicago

[desert talon]

Luv me Voyager's
Luv me Town n Country's
Luv me 3.3's

Simple as

[harsh nymph]

Otherwise its 120 miles

At 25mpg, thats $19.20 in gas

[grizzled lagoon]

I honestly don’t think anyone should love these personally but that’s all you

[harsh nymph]

$24*

[fringe sapphire]

Sienna and odyssey mog

[harsh nymph]

Forgot it went from $4 to $5/gallon

[rocky heath]

Trash vs garbage

[fringe sapphire]

[grizzled lagoon]

Odyssey is actually a good minivan

[desert talon]

Honest to god,our family has hand 3 of these (4 if you include a parts car) and all of them have been amazing.

[grizzled lagoon]

The fact that you need a parts Chrysler voyager tells me all I need to know

[harsh nymph]

Best minivan is the 2026 Kia Carnival Hybrid

[desert talon]

0 breakdowns,0 electrical gremlins,0 large issues... if you dont include rust

[grizzled lagoon]

Oh of course

[rocky heath]

Can say the same about a civic

[grizzled lagoon]

Yes the problem is that Chrysler made them out of recycled PBR and keystone light cans

[desert talon]

had good metal on it so had its underside cut up to weld onto the good running one

[fringe sapphire]

You don't but ok speak your "facts"

[grizzled lagoon]

See if Chrysler made them out of high life cans they’d be solid

[fringe sapphire]

World's worst ragebaiter

[fringe sapphire]

The ranger isn't technically mine but it is in practice

[craggy lily]

Get a daily called a Ford model t

[grizzled lagoon]

This is honestly the saddest thing I’ve ever heard

[harsh nymph]

true

[harsh nymph]

dms

[fringe sapphire]

It's the backup when the sol is down or I'm working on it

[craggy lily]

They don’t make em like they used to everything after 1919 is garbage

[harsh nymph]

[fringe sapphire]

Holy bait

[grizzled lagoon]

Worst rage bait of all time

[harsh nymph]

A real daily car*

[fringe sapphire]

You make my brother seem tolerable

[obsidian bramble]

Having owned a normal people daily for almost 2 years

[desert talon]

[grizzled lagoon]

[craggy lily]

O tier ragebait

[harsh nymph]

Its not ragebait, its the truth

Some people don't want to hear the truth

[obsidian bramble]
