Nissan trucks suck. Their two mid-size cars (Altima/Maxima) are the two best things for that company, not including the low production Z. They are great cars. Their trucks blow goats though.
by far not at all...i would much rather drive a titan than an f150...when it comes to a HD truck it would be a Ram with a cummins in it...personally ford trucks are over rated POS's...why would it be bad for Ford to merge with Nissan, they merged with Mazda many years ago...JDM is JDM, not just saying because i am a Nissan enthusiest and have two very high HP, turbocharged 4 wackers, i am stating that because it is the truth...g35/37 coupe or mustang--i would pick the g35/37 because it is so much better looking...maxima or taurus--maxima because i had an 07 and could burn the tires off through 3rd gear on an auto...or how about the new GT-R or a cobra--i just love AWD donuts:icon_thumby:

In all fairness, the GT-R costs WAY more than a Cobra last time I looked. But it's worth every penny. Even the GT (the GT-40 remake, not the crappy Mustang) couldn't touch the GT-R on the track. And on the road it would get worse.

Air-cooled VWs don't get 45mpg. I've had several over the years. A bus will get less than 20mpg town or highway and a Beetle would be doing well to get 30mpg.
The guy he got from said if it doesn't, bring it back. He drove as much as I did, I gassed up with my Ranger once a week, figured 10mpg average, he gassed up once a month and usually averaged close to 40mpg around town. He didn't drive it much on the highway because it really catches wind.

It does have a '73 Super Beetle 1600 dual port, so it has more oomph than normal. Aside from the bigger engine the car is stock.

Actually, unless it's a head on, you likely would survive. See, lighter vehicles still absorb energy in a collision but since they are more easily moved there is less total energy to absorb. That is why the newer, lighter vehicles are actually safer than the old boats that were built in the 70's. Big doesn't equal survival. Now if the suburbanites could get that down.
This was all over the news a month or two ago, I love how the Smart car goes flying away at the end...
