what or stupid maybe???

I've been reading this place for years and it matter not what the car is all that matters is which wheel drive it is.

So i picked 3 different types almost at random and see what folk prefer.

Is that mid-engined? Look at the pic: The driveshafts end in the rear hubs, which you can see in the pic; the crankshaft must be between the wheel rims, just ahead of the hubs.

[Tyre Tread]

A good driver can enjoy them all by adapting to whatever is beneath him/her. Can you add that as an option?

[Lets Torque]

It also depends on what Tyre Tread you have....

Almost at random, yet 100% deliberately





lol, no worries. BTW I changed my previous post as I thought it might be insulting. Apologies.

Dunno, they're all better than walking and infinitely preferable to public transport, so All of The Above.

You are right, it's truly amazing, offer up a highly biased poll against the sensible answers and still many people see through the web of deceit and are able to click on the right options.

Are you sure that's 4wd, most or all of those where only 2wd (rwd).

technically they are midengined as the crank is infront of the rear axle


Just

Not sure that's a sure fire way of deciding what is an engines placement. If it is, then I'm sure there are loads of front mid mounted fwd cars as well as a few front mounted fwd cars.

Also what about longitudinally mounted engines that drive the front wheels, therefore having the crank both in front and behind the front axle line?
