Useless car fact #5: rebadging

Rebadging is not a new practice by any means, auto companies have been participating in Rebadging other companies cars since the 60s and earlier, the chevrolet 5500 and the international 5500 for example, they look the same except for the grill and logos, or the 1999 Isuzu rodeo and the 1999 honda passport, yes, even honda Rebadged cars. Or the holden commodore and the chevy ss, it’s not as out of pocket because chevrolet and holden are owned by GM, unlike the other Rebadges that are straight up competitors making deals just to get more money out of one car or truck. There are tons of other Rebadges but I can’t go through all of them. So here’s a very short list

OMG GUYS I JUST FOUND OUT ABOUT THE 1976 NOVA AND ITS LIKE A FUN SIZE 1976 IMPALA MY HEART IS GOING TO FUCKING EXPLODE AAAAAAHHHHHHH

Useless car fact #2: unibody vs body on frame.

Unibody vs body on frame is the style in which a car is built. Body on frame is the oldest way of manufacturing a vehicle, because of its simplicity, acceling in offroad performance, towing capacity, and easier repair, however, body on frame cars lack the safety that unibody frame cars provide, although unibody cars are inferior in towing and offroading, they provide proper safety to occupants. Unibody cars where first invented in the 1920s, but didn\’t gain traction until the 1950s, and really became popular when the malaise era hit (higher gas and oil prices, which made big cars more expensive to own) in the 1970s. Because of this, cars like the cadillac eldorado and the chevrolet caprice either had to move to unibody construction or be discontinued all together. Leaving only trucks and semis to use body on frame construction. But later, in the 1990s, there where some cars trying to hold on to the body on frame configuration, for example, the impala, crown victoria, Lincoln town car, chevrolet caprice and buick roadmaster just to name a few.
Modern vehicles that are built with unibody construction are the honda accord and civic, Toyota camry and corolla, chevrolet impala (1999 to now), and some lightweight trucks and suvs. Modern cars that use body on frame construction consist of the chevrolet silverado, tahoe and suburban, ford f150, explorer and expedition.

Useless fact #1: aspiration

A naturally aspirated engine is an engine with no forced airflow to the combustion chamber (no forced induction). This motor has less parts and is less expensive, but produces less power. But if you force air into the combustion chamber (forced induction), that would increase the engines overall power output. You can force induction by either supercharging or turbocharging your engine. Note: engine components might need to be modified to handle the strain from the increased power.
