But why not a twinturbo 5.0? Like an Ecoboost, but it has more power and sounds good.

we have literally been watching inflation happen daily because of the recent gov. printing money shenanigans.....and then they roll out this and act like there will be no further consequences.

Of course Biden wants to make it permanent.....that'll get the votes! and $150,000 income cap? They are doing just fine, and if they are not, its not my fault, so quit giving my tax dollars to them.

My 2024 prez run is looking better and better.

I hope they eat each other.

On the left, who consume oppressors at an incredible rate, they will eventually need to eat the ones on their side who aren’t true to the party.

:eek: I saw inside surveillance footage this am on Imgur. The poor socialists that infect that website were all commenting on the governor waiting to determine the political party of the residence before rendering aid :rolleyes:
