They kept hitting the minivan when they would park.

They drove it around an abandoned military base in order to see if driving while stressed causes you to use more gasoline (it does).

They dinged it up a little and "lightly" backed into the minivan a few times. But they didn't destroyed it.

Probably will be at some point, knowing them.

The things they do to old cars appalls me.

Don't even get me started on these two dumb asses, when I saw what they did to the 69 caddy I wanted to cry. And I was so mad I stopped watching this show after they crashed the 67 fury into the Krail's. I'd like to fly out to California and meet Adam and Jamie so I can kick each one of then in the nuts for what they do to nice cars.

I dunno, StPaulCarGuy, I may be biased as a big Mythbusters fan, but if I were a car, I'd want to go out with a bang instead of rusting out in a junkyard or spend eternity being a trailer queen.

I'd much rather see a car go to a junkyard, where some of its parts could possibly go to keep others on the road.

And "trailer queen?" You'd seriously rather see a car destroyed than preserved? If nothing else, that's a sign that this trendy "anti-trailer" backlash in car-show circles has gone way too far.

I have to agree with you on the resurrection part skid. However I don't trailer any of my cars around, after I restore em I drive em. That's why the manufacturers put for wheels on em in the first place.

I wouldn't trailer them either, but I'd rather see a car trailered than destroyed. At least a trailered car is being preserved.

Also I think people forget that the Buick Regal isn't just the Grand National like there are a bunch of different engines that aren't the Turbo 3.8, here they are in fact, 196 cu in (3.2 L) Buick V6, 231 cu in (3.8 L) Buick V6, 252 cu in (4.1 L) Buick V6, 260 cu in (4.3 L) Oldsmobile Diesel V6 (AKA complete shit), 265 cu in (4.3 L) Pontiac V8, 301 cu in (4.9 L) Pontiac V8, 305 cu in (5.0 L) Chevrolet V8, 307 cu in (5.0 L) Oldsmobile V8, 350 cu in (5.7 L) Oldsmobile Diesel V8 (Even more complete shit, if the 4.3L Olds was complete 100% shit, this would be new game+ DLC 125% shit.)

Obviously, America suffers from a shortage of descriptive terminology, if the example above is anything to go on.

:lol:

if the choice of words is debatable sadly from what i heard its about the only way to give an accurate description of those two engines..

( Caddy's 8-6-4 would also figure in there but it wasn't a diesel or used in the Regal )

How about: - inadequate, unreliable, weak, ill conceived, poorly designed, lacking in puissance, awful, or even manky or grotty?
