I dont have an 08 minivan mine weighs 2400. If i wanted to drive around a big heavy pos for a DD i'd get a real suv/minivan. Go drive a shitbox with more torque than hp, has a redline that ends before your mighty vtec even wakes up and weighs 400lbs. Then you might discover what a usable powerband feels like.
The only owning i'm aware of is you thinking 2jz = solution to everything, which only a imbecile would think given that the lsx wins road racing champsionships left and right. Where as the only thing the 2jz competes against officially are fwd drag racing hondas.
If you think pointing out the s2k's dd shortcoming = me flaming and you getting your panties in a bunch than your obviously too blinded by your temple of vtec and the fanboys of the temple.

Secondary gear reduction: 1.208

Actual final in 5th is 3.854 (Plus you still have an extra gear for the hwy)
Giving you a TQ/Weight ratio of 0.058 ft.lbs per pound.
2008 Scion XB
Weight: 3020
TQ: 162
HP: 158
Gear ratios
1st: 3.54:1
2nd: 1.90:1
3rd: 1.31:1
4th: 0.96:1
5th: 0.81:1
Final: 4.31
Actual final in 5th is 3.491
Giving you a TQ/weight ratio of 0.053 ft.lbs per pound.
So basically, in the S2k, you have a car with the same amount of crank TQ, that weighs about 250lbs less, has 79 more HP... and shorter gearing (In 5th gear anyway, which is the only gear you use according to your never ending hill climbing posts)
It's pretty obvious you just have a hate on for the S2k, first you compared it to a Vette (Which you don't own..), then a Scion, none of which had anything to do with the thread subjet.
So hows about you just GTFO and put an end to the outrageous owning that just took place.
(Disclaimer)**I might be wrong about which scion you drive, but you said 5th gear so I assume you have the C-150 5 spd.**
