I put badges that say "graney's car" on the back of my corolla.

I invented a new car. It is now an Australian car. Toyota had nothing to do with it.

Holdens are a fucking joke.

A so called 'aussie' company owned by Americans for almost 80 years, with many of their main models copied from Chevrolets and pontiacs, yeah real fucking 'aussie'.......

What a great marketing gimmick my GM to suck in gullible and ignorant aussies into buying their cars......
As opposed to a company which has always been owned by Americans.

How do Falcons magically not put down torque in 1st gear but do in second?
Lol, I forgot to mention the "Auto" part...

The ford auto's have a massively tall first gear, with torque in reserve for towing a trailer. This is great as you don't have to worry too much about giving it too much power. The second gear just puts as much torque to the floor as it can. That's why I've accidently found myself with no back wheel traction on a soaking wet highway doing 70-80 kp/h (the gear changes from 1st to second there).

It's since been changed to a manual.

That doesn't make sense.

The torque in first gear is higher than in second gear.

Am I missing something?

I like Holdens but I must say owning and seeing what the straight sixes with turboes I've semi-converted xD. XR6T's and F6 Typhoons are crazy RWKW.

Ford.

Bloody Holdens. The one car make I'd never drive is Holden.

Okay, and Hyundai. Actually there's quite a few.
