I remember someone actually posted about that but I don't think there was ever a clear answer.

Annoying indeed.
Indeed they did. Many guesses were made with the most logical being some form of server reset or in that vein of logic. Doesn't matter to me, it shouldn't happen.

I have to confess that I'm getting really tired of hearing these a-holes on their deathbed in the ICU down to the very last minute spreading falsehoods and conspiracy theories about the vaccines.

Yeah yeah, it was my confession after all.

Ahh my work was done here as well if you'll be thinking of me while shopping for those necessities. Lol.

Don't remember but it was pretty big and reached some obscenely high speeds on back roads. I remember it being such a soft riding car almost floating. Lol.

A HS friend used his mother's 400cid '70 (I think) Bonneville. Very scary on the backroads!

What does the 400cid mean? Is it cubic inches?

cmyx6go to put that into perspective, the engine in that beastly X6M of yours which I believe is a 4.4L V8 engine would be equivalent to 267 CID if I'm not mistaken. Imagine a 400 CID engine.

Having said that, I don't remember my dad's car being all that powerful, but was likely just a large block engine. As a teen though, it was great.

Thank you. The D in CID confused me. I had a ‘74 Caddy with the 501 Cubic inch.
Should this be in the “You know you’re old” thread.

Sure. Yes, it's confusing and I don't know how often CID is used as I don't see it used that often but I'm not a mechanic. I suppose it makes sense when discussing American cars though being that we're not into the metric system like the rest of the world. Your Caddy was a monster.

As for the last part, you said it, not me.

That car was a beast for its time. They were so big and heavy. You have no idea how many power steering units i went through having to parallel park that beast in tight spots.
