Gawd damn zoomers are stoopid. Also they used a more powerful Capri on inclines because the shitbox couldn't pull it IIRC.

This. The Lincoln had a larger, 317/5.2L OHC V8 compared to the 255ci/4.2L flathead V8.

this was before the auto industry was hellbent on selling trucks as a "lifestyle item" and not a vehicle for workers first

>>28916243
Those old cars were pretty much pickup trucks underneath, retard. You also think there might be a difference in speeds in the 50's vs now? How well do you think a 50's car pulling a modern 7000lb camper will do in modern 80mph traffic?

insurance is why you dumb retard

>>28916917
jews is why, goyim

Cars drive faster now than they did in 1954 and the drivers are much less tolerant

What sort of luddite is still towing a RV trailer these days?
Vanlife is where it's been for the last decade.

>>28916243
actually its unsafe as fuck to tow with vehicles that're that light, even if they have a v8 in them.
knew a shit head who had a 304 v8 cj and a shitty little fiberglass inboard boat managed to jackknife him because of how light it is.
vehicles under 4,500lbs just can't fucking tow shit safely up to 90mph.
I don't care what fucking faggot fedora counter opinion you have, it's not safe to tow with the wrong curb weight.

>dude you GOTTA go 80
>what do you mean the speed limit is 65?
what are people even gonna do if you’re going 65? rear end your trailer? just let them pass you and keep minding your own business.

I am high jacking this thread to ask an RV related question.
I want a motorhome, but every single one is built like shit with flimsy fiberglass and other stuff. I want something sturdy, would it be better to just buy some old school bus and try to make a "skoolie" despite having basically zero welding and/or construction experience? I can do some DIY handyman stuff but a complete overhaul like that requires seems like it might be out of my skillset.

People will just go around you if you're going slow but that creates potentially dangerous situations. Part of being a responsible citizen is to just use the right tool for the job so you don't be an asshole.

>>28917232
All motorhomes are junk unless they're $700k+. School buses are flimsy pop cans on wheels and aren't much better plus by the time they hot the auction block they tend to be pretty clapped. Especially now days when a lot are gas or propane powered. Building out an interior on one isn't rocket science just a lot of work.

There are currently 7 (SEVEN) stupid truck bait threads on /o/.

>>28916243
Those cars had engines that could handle it, not the 4cylinder cuck boxes that are around now.

>>28917040
you mean how light the boat was.

>>28917232
They're all garbage unless you're buying something for a million dollars from Provost or something.

I'd get a truck and an airstream. Airstream is basically the only trailer/RV id ever own tbqhwy. Maybe and Alaskan camper if I was a single young man again.

Hmm, I wonder where the problem is.
