      I feel like this could have been avoided, he even said it himself after the oil overfilled again "either fuel or coolant is getting into the oil", probably not coolant because no milkshake, but fuel thins the oil and would cause low or no oil pressure.

I think they might sell it, and buy a Hemi truck.

    When Top Gear did their challenges, there was always a backup car ... a real bad backup car! What about having having a pink Prius as the reserve vehicle ... if your truck dies, you have to take the Prius ;)

Are you truly that bored, lonely or miserable in your life? Go spend some time at an animal shelter volunteering to help clean kennels and then sitting with terrified, lonely, unwanted and/or abused dogs and cats, give them your time, love and attention, play fetch with several of them, AND, choose every day to intentionally do something to make a complete stranger smile! STOP bringing politics or political parties into every day life of complete strangers, it’s abnormal, unhealthy and annoying, I can say with the utmost certainty that the majority of us don’t want to hear ANYTHING about your political views, stance or opinions, nor do we care!

      As soon as they said "we're gettin' another HEMI" and they said it was the 5.9L, I checked out. Although it's got a lot of poke, that V8 was NEVER known as a HEMI.
