Someone say RX-8 truck?

 

that is amazing.

 

that truck should get those accolade cspec fenders from that other thread :P, o and i love the aero mirrows on there.

 

LoL! Daaaaaaaa...........

 

Well, it would be a truck, so it'll sell a lot better in the U.S.!

 

Cuz what you really want is a truck that doesnt have enough torque to pull a jetski. No rotary trucks please.

 

I had a 1977 REPU for 200K+ miles. It was sold to a guy in New Zealand that races a RX7 and uses the REPU to tow the RX7. The 1977 REPU had a 5 speed (older had 4) and a slightly larger cab, but still a small truck. The key to the torque was downshifting. I used it to pull a 20' V6 powered ski boat and it could out pull many others. But I did have one serious problem. One day coming back from the Colorado river there was a sever head wind. I had to use full throttle on the down hills and downshift all the way to 2nd at times on the up hills. Used almost a full tank of gas (20 gal) to go just 185 miles! Discovered the next day that the long hard pulls had overheated my apex springs and the engine was hard to start. (Once started the springs aren't really needed as gas pressure will hopld the seals in place.) (A quick overhaul only found the springs bad.)

A Rotary truck is nice as something diffferent, but really not the best thing for the rotary engine.

 

thats interesting trz. i guess if it ever came to be it should be like the chevrolet ssr. not a everyday hauler. just a different approach to a typical truck.

 

LOL! I like!

 

Bad idea for a Wankel.

You torque for a PU

 

ugly.
