No really, that was an actual color offered on the Impulse, or at least the Storm :p

Isn’t this supposed to go inside of the car?

If I run over the person who writes those textbooks with an Isuzu, will I be able to clear him completely? Or will he be dragged under the car for a while?

To be fair, I clipped the figure.

The full figure is supposed to show (on a basic level) the operating principles of a simple hydraulic system (in this case, a lift). Mechanical advantage is a wonderful thing.

That’s an interesting question:

The 1990-1992 Isuzu Impulse has 5.2 inches of ground clearance. An average adult human has a height of 9.5 inches when laying on their back.

The Isuzu would need to be raised approximately 4.3 inches to clear an average adult human.

I’m pretty sure that’s the most 90s car photo I’m going to see this entire decade.

It’s missing side graphics though, unlike this Tracker...

No it isn’t. That color is awesome.

GM’s 90’s color palette is almost as awesome as 90’s Toyota reliability. Yellow, pink, aqua, hell yeah!

And this is why new car are mostly black, silver, white, and gray. Boring! :(

Beige is too boring. But real colors that re cool get hated on for no reason. YOU CAN’T WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Clear violation of the sleeping policeman’s rule. Sorry Impulse, but your powerlaps time is being stripped off the board. Guess the 918 reigns supreme at the top again.
