That is so stupid Toyota We don’t need another suv In the USA you are making a big mistake buy not bring the 70 series pickup truck Crew cab 4x4 we need a hard working tough truck that can go anywhere That’s a shame you ruin your Tecoma by putting 4cylinder turbo if I by a new truck I looking now more to the Nissan frontier 4x4 I think that that the frontier is now out selling tecoma because Nissan kept there 6cylinder the same not all this tech that Toyota has gone too big mistake it’s going to cost them dearly If they bring the 70 series Land Cruiser pick truck to the USA it will out sell every other truck in the market has down because of its hard look and build like a tank it keeps on going I won’t buy anything else
A MAJOR MISTAKE..............THE Studebaker Avanti ran a 289 cubic inch engine, which only has a "liter displacement" of 4.7, and the "5.8 displacement" would be equal to a 351 cubic inch displacement engine, such as that of a Ford 351 Modified,, Ford 351 Cleveland, and or Ford 351 Windsor engines!! BUT KEEP IN MIND, that Studebaker WAS its own company and THEY also developed a 289 cubic inch engine for their car line!! The main features of the Studebaker modified motor was a larger camshaft AND the addition (depending on option) was a supercharger that increase horsepower substantially!! And these options were available from Studebaker directly upon ordering your new car!! WHICH BRINGS ME TO ANOTHER POINT ABOUT TODAY'S CARS........back in the 1960s and 1970s and into the 1980s, YOU COULD order a car with different optional engines AND even transmissions......which NO LONGER in most cases is possible today!! THIS IS WHY, you find odd, rare or one off cars, that at times doesn't make any sense!! Like finding a 1967 Ford Country Squire station wagon with a 428 Cobra Jet engine with a stick shift in it, OR a 1969 Chevrolet Malibu four door with a 396 cubic inch engine under the hood!! And options lists back then were more "open" from manufacturers too!! Which is why you can find cars with limited slip rear ends or massive performance sway bars on cars that normally would not have them as big on things like Novas, Mavericks, Cougars, LeMans', and Darts! It isn't impossible either to find big block V8 engines in some Plymouth, Dodge or Chrysler cars either at times, with weird option packages as well!! This practice of ordering cars today is gone in certain aspects!! As you might be STILL allowed to option out "different interior colors" but you certainly can NOT order a V6 with a stick shift in most cars on the market too, and you certainly will never again find a car, or car company like a Toyota Camry or Honda Accord, offering big performance "upgrades" direct from the factory!!
I've had mine since 2023 and really enjoy it. My last car was a 2013 MB S550, that was a fantastic car the Avalon is a step down but not as big a step as I would have thought. Great mileage 39mpg+ and I drive fast, the only thing that bothers me is the flexing of the hood and fenders from wind makes the car look cheap, although I may be spoiled by the vault like quality of the Benz. Roomy, comfortable, and smooth and room for 4 six footers. The motors fill in so acceleration is quick but the top end seems maxxed out at 100mph. I really expect to get Toyota longevity it was a major factor in my decision, my Benz was REALLY EXPENSIVE to maintain there at the end as a soon to be retiree, I couldn't have that kind of wildcard in my future.
If you're going to use an AI voice at least take the time to have a human write out a good script and narrative Jeepers creepers. AI voices I can handle it's crappy narratives that are the real culprit in my mind. Anyway I'm done with this channel
Id been talking to the guy who supposedly has the rights to the nameplate, expressed some novel ideas i had on moneysaving production methods and was rebuffed. Id also seen abandoned plans from others on a nameplate revival, and all were very bland and terrible. Im a freelance artist and inventor, ive offered my services, and nobody ever gets back to me on it. Im feeling that all these people talking Studebaker revival are all talk, or worse. Ive invented quick assembly methods, and indestructible body panels made of recycled materials, all to save time and money... But nobody cares ... And here we go again. Another sauhaus as bauhaus design with nothing to set uniquely apart, as a stude/ avanti should be
Studebaker built 4,643 examples of the Avanti, 3.834 '63 models and 809 '64s. Perhaps the total of Studebaker and Avanti Motor Corporation might have been as high as 6,000 units.
R4 was normally aspirated with 12:1 compression, dual four-barrels, and a racing cam/ According to Avanti Motor Corporation literature from the early seventies, Studebaker never advertised horsepower ratings for any of the Avanti engines. Studebaker dealers Nate Altman and Leo Newman bought the rights to the Avanti name and designs, and very limited production continued until the late 1990. One of the original designers, Tom Kellogg, redesigned the Avanti in the late 1990s, adapting the Avanti design to a Firebird frame, and Kellogg's design was later modified to the Fox Mustang platform.
So the government thinks kids in the front seat are going to be injured by the airbags? Kids are supposed to be in the backseat. Oops, no back seat. Problem solved.
Just gotta say, my 2022 SLE FWD with the 1.5 liter engine is plenty fast on takeoff AND cruising the super slab. Have no complaints about it's pep....!!! 😊
This video has ALL the hallmarks of being created entirely by automated video creation tools where you only write what the video is about, press enter and a few seconds later it spews out a finished video with : AI voice narrating it, video clips and still pictures, all totally ready to post on youtube... Automatically created videos like this is flooding youtube with crappy videos like this, it is a cancer !!!
My uncle owned a golden hawk! Until its untimely demese(Quints word) then he switched to Convairs but both were cool!! But it (the Stude) had the freewheel function which became illegal due to brake overheating!
i looked a truck in Santa María California dated 05/16/2018 in Main and Broadway. Today look one more. in street Texas Avenue in the City of Alexandria Louisiana today,May 1,2024 wednesday
The R4 engine had two 4bbl AFB carbs and high compression, if I remember correctly 12 to 1 and the only factory installation was in a 64 Daytona convertible. The R4 engine was available after the fact, as was the R3 motor with a single super charger and a specialized sealed carb and housing. Both the R3, R4, and R5 engines were bored to 304.5 cid. The R5 motor, (a one off project) had the twin super chargers, Novi race fuel injection and other modifications to produce at least 500hp, though disagreements still exist even today about the actual hp. The last I heard was the R5 engine has been found but is incomplete and efforts are? (were?) still be conducted to complete the motor.
There is a video made by classic car chitchat about a guy who owns a collection of Studebaker s and owns a one of a kind Avanti and not this silly voice over. Please check it out.
This car had an Italian GT look. This car could have easily come out of a Ferrari or Maserati factory. The interior is also beautiful. So far above anything made in the US at that time. Guages and real wood etc. Fantastic.
I've recently bought a 2023 softail standard and haven't had any problems braking ,the front brake stopped me fast . The rear brake is abs,but it only has 49 miles on her, So I'm think once she's broken in she'll stop faster. I like her just haven't been able to ride her cause of the winter. I really like this bike it's awesome riding her
Why start off calling xt5 ageing while admitting the Lexus is in the 5th gen. Maybe you just should have said, “Why I like the Lexus over the Xt5! Talk about biased!
So much wrong info on the Avanti. No exception here. Whoever does this description Did poor research The Avanti alone set 29 world records, but the entire line of Studebakers set 357 such speed and endurance records. The records were NOT set by a twin supercharged engine. But a production single supercharged engine. That was 170+ MPH. A twin supercharged experimental version topped 198 MPH losing traction (at Bonneville )and failing to achieve it's 220 MPH potential. Please production people who put out these segments-- please get stuff info right. We Avanti owners would appreciate accuracy and call upon us for correct info. Thanks.
