I had an 88 nova. It was my first car. As a pure psycho that neglected everything except my trouser snake, you could not kill that car. I never changed the oil, never changed the brakes, never serviced anything, beat it to shit, ramped it over train tracks, and it kept going.

You guys need to address how they want to change the laws so we can’t modify our cars! There is a petition against it!

[@BabaYagaRacing]

Yes

[@LavendrHoney]

Hoping donut speaks up 🗣

[@nathanjoseph4284]

I would love to see a Wheelhouse episode about the EPA debacle and how SEMA is helping defending ourselves against EPA for the right to modify our cars. I would love to see what Nolan thinks about this topic, and talk about something that is a actually an issue for us car enthusiasts.

[@JS-hw8ve]

They talked about it already on Wheel House. It was in India. I haven't heard about it in the US. There are already laws against certain mods in North America, so I'm not sure what you mean.

[@LavendrHoney]

@@JS-hw8ve yeah they want to begin banning not just some mods but all mods. You gotta pay attention to the news. That’s why donut should speak up I already sign the online petition that sents it to my states rep. To let them know we don’t want that.

There was a Concept car for a new Nova back in the mid 2000s. It was actually based off a BMW 1 Series, it was a killer looking little car.

Some of my best friends are veterans and I have several relatives who've been LEOs. 'Nuff respect to all first responders, enlisted, officers, vets, and healthcare workers. God bless y'all. But, you couldn't give me a Dodge/Chrysler/FCA car. Nope! My parents had several and other friends and relatives have owned them too (including a couple of the aforementioned close friends who are vets). I've driven, and more importantly, repaired a few of them. No, no, no, no! Not spending my own money on one and probably won't accept one as a free gift either. You'd have to pay me to take one. Dodge, verb: to avoid quickly. I know VW's less than stellar reputation, but, frankly, I'd rather own a VW than a Dodge. Make it a pre-2009 diesel with a clutch-pedal manual...

[@Gerald.69]

6:29 shows that james has never driven a 2006 first gen escape that came with a mazda 2.3l 4 banger that was in the MS3 and a 5 speed geared low manual trans. Theyre rare but mine was super quick. 0-60 in 5 seconds naturally aspirated. Theyre built on the ford focus platform too so they handle well, and came with sporty bucket seats and nice wheel and steering
