  1. I love the Fords + Holdens. Great to drive - and plenty of room for the bike.

    If I won lotto, I would buy an Falcon XR8 ute. I'm sure I would get more fun
    and enjoyment (and practicality) than any Euro or Jap car - regardless of the
    price. Leave plenty of money leftover to give to charities.

    Yes, but at the expense of a huge capacity engine and earths natural
    recources.

    European and japanese cars are on the right track, smaller more
    efficient engines, utilising power transfer from flywheel to "the
    wheels".

    Holden and ford, yes, nice big cars. Did you know holden still uses
    pushrods instead of direct camshafts? C'mon, and the genIII engines,
    ridiculously unreliable and short life span.

    Saying this, I will admit that i would love gts 5.7 L sitting in my
    garage anyday :p

    Cheers

    Holdens AND Fords are both potential killers as far I can see.

    i care, thats why i asked. you no you are allowed to talk about other
    things than cycling in this part of the forum, thats why it says keep
    all off topic topics here.

    paul, you need to loosen up.

    It shouldn't get cross-posted from whatever forum you are using to the
    usenet group aus.bicycles.
