I am a fellow lefty, but also a doctor, so handedness is irrelevant to the complete illegibility of my writing :lol:

Re: 2005 Best in Class: 'X' {Submissions}

well i decided to try my hand at this challenge seeing it's easy enough, so this is the 2005 Galt Kerri:

it is a family friendly minivan capable of seating up to 7 passengers, has a fuel efficiency of 33 mpg so that's nothing to shy away from, especially considering it has a 144 horsepower 3.4L V6 engine, and it is practically idiot proofed from people putting in the wrong octane level by requiring only 76 AKI fuel, the van itself also has a bit of a sports appeal to it by easily getting 120+, it's not the best in the world, but it's a fair competitor, and with the estimated costs after labor and dealership markups are added it's a nice van for the $15,000 mark.

Boss Motorsports would like to present the 2005 Boss Stump Puller

With mind-boggling amounts of torque and horsepower, this is the truck that can pull your 18-wheeler.

What's our secret? The Boss 432 of course.
We utilized the original Boss Big Block design originally incorporated in 1969. The original motor produced 500 HP (astounding for the time), now, with modern technology and two turbo chargers, the Stump Puller puts out over 3 times the power from the original Boss 432. It's specifically designed to give you all the power you ever need when you get those turbos spooled. A 5 speed automatic transmission helps keep the power manageable and eliminates the chance of burning out the clutch from the sheer amounts of torque you'll have at the tip of your foot.

Is it economical? No. Is it practical? No. Is it comfortable? No. Safe? Nope. Can I use it every day? If you do what it was designed to do, you sure can!
This truck was built to pull and to haul. It needs that massive payload on the rear axle to help put the power down through the standard Medium Compound 255s in the rear. While you'll be able to do a burnout with ease, tires aren't the cheapest thing to burn through in a single day with the massive amounts of possible wheel-spin. To help you out the Stump Puller comes standard with a full array of electronic driver assists. In addition, we at Boss Motorsports recommend upgrading to our off-road package for better rubber and a more robust suspension.

So if you have several thousand pounds of goods that need to be hauled, don't waste your money on a huge truck and a special license, get yourself a reasonably priced Boss Stump Puller today!

Re: 2005 Best in Class: 'X' {Submissions}

I was just looking over my car... and 2 changes would have made a significant difference in its stats, hopefully it holds out anyways.

So yes its main targets were the off road, reliability, and surprisingly lowest cost.

carskirk's and Zabhawkin's cars have no door handles!
Is it a tradeoff between practicality and extra safety? :D

Its part of the KISS principle. Its just simpler to not add door handles....


Not buying it???? Ok fine, I forgot.

But a feature on my submission is that the doors are easily removable, so you don't need handles.
