      That's the nature of network production. Time is money. A network like Motortrend/Discovery+ has to get max views/per minute to support the profit margin.
      Think about it, a 22 minute show will have about the same number of viewers ans a 55 minutes show. Just that the viewers will be there longer. That doesn't always equal more sales for the advertisers.

      @@thechillhacker the 330 was only offered in one 88 model. That was the Jetstar 88 and only in 1964. It was an attempt by Olds to offer a lower price point by equipping an 88 with the F85 drivetrain. Somewhat of a morphodite, besides the 330, you got a version of the 2 speed powerglide, a rear end, steering and suspension parts specific to that car only. I’ve had two, one a bare bones radio delete base, the one I have now is fully loaded with the optional 310 horse 330 available in the 442.

    A family vacation is not truly a family vacation without doing so in a station wagon and cruising down Route 66. This Olds station wagon looks sporty too so that's a major plus!

    I like how in the beginning he wasnt in character and was talking all normal. Then as soon as the hood came up, it was back to VGG

    the same exact engine my 82 Buick had, I changed just about every part in that thing, over 100k miles that teflon/plastic toothed sprocket on the cam will detonate from all the heat cycles.

    We had a Olds Custom Cruiser wagon when I was a kid. Had the 350/350 combo in it. Used that car for everything. Traded it for a Dodge conversion van. Van had almost 300k on it before it got parked.

    I know it was not a powerhouse but the Olds 307 was a dependable, workhorse that would run and run, never let me down. I had few in 81-85 Delta 88’s and Cutlass’s.
