Ferrari built a 1.5L V12 in the late-40s, that made 227hp with a supercharger. Think of what we could do with 70 years of innovation to build off!

Unfortunately emissions killed off all that creativity. F1 cars in the 80's had a 1.5 turbo that was making 1500 hp at least.

Get outta here with your logic! We have no room for that.

Actually I am shocked at how cheap a set of tires is.

When I was a child, I remember, schools gone to 1 week holiday due to air pollution in my town. Emission restrictions killed all the fun!

And how many decades ago was that. There is a huge difference between realistic emissions and laws that make even the automakers choose to cheat. When large multinational companies choose to ignore the laws something is very wrong. |

Automakers choose to cheat because it's easier than a real solution, and they can make more money (until they're caught). It's the great fallacy of an industry self-policing. Money today is always worth more than money later, and if they get caught it's (hopefully) someone else's problem.

Looks like a PA license plate on the left there. Truck doesn't look that old; probably punking the other car by "Rolling Coal." An A$$hat did that to me a couple of years ago. Had some monstrous PU with the exhaust going up both sides of the cab like he was a Semi Tractor. He hit the switch and heavy black smoke started pouring out and I touched the buttons and sealed up. Never got a whiff, and saluted him with one finger as he passed me in the opposite direction.
