thinking of turning a pic related into a shitbox
would a 91 dodge dynasty 3 speed auto have potential?
How useless are 3 speed automatics?

But that car's pretty nice.

It's a landbarge much like the Crown Victoria. The 3 speed automatics aren't known for strength but they're perfectly fine with the stock engines.
Potential for what?
But they are nice. Sure it's a landbarge, but landbarges are nice. Maximum comfy too.
On a related note, what's with all the Dodge Dynasty threads lately? I've seen 5 or 6 this past month and never seen one before.

i like square body cars too not many in my area
i found a local dynasty but i imagine a 3 speed would accelerate slowly etc
Grayson Garcia
It's a V6 either way and a reliable one at that. They're not fast, but they're not painfully slow either. I think it's like an 8 second 0-60.

That is NOT a landbarge. Boxy styling does not a landbarge make. That's a FWD, V6/L4 powered small-frame car that shares more in common with a Dodge Neon than a Crown Victoria. Let me give you some common criteria for a landbarge/landyacht/landtank:
>V8
>longitudinal, RWD engine layout ('70s FWD big block GM's get a pass on this one)
>full size frame (Panther, A/B/C/D body, etc)
>usually built before the '90s
None of which this car posseses. This is an anemic attempt at capturing the "big box" style, but with modern nasty design inside it. Newer three speeds are atrocious with driveability, the engines are weak and parts are less comon than long-standing small block V8 families, and it's much smaller and cramped on the inside than you'd think it is.

Landbarges didn't get their name from the V8 RWD layout or full size frame or time frame it was built. Landbarges earned their name in the way they drove. Uber comfy, little to no steering or suspension feel, and if you went over a bumpy road, you were likely to get sea-sick due to the soft bouncy suspension. They got the name for driving like an actual yacht with wheels. And the Dodge Dynasty fits the description.
Modern day landbarges include 2007+ Nissan maxima's and Toyota Avalons. It's not just RWD V8 sedans.

>This much bullshit
Confirmed for being born post 95.
all the: criteria are part of the land barge, it has to be physically a barge as well as in handling.
If it's not all the things above, and what you mentioned, then it's not a land barge.
>Nissan maxima
>Avalon
>EVER deserving the label land barge

It's not great but it's not terrible. Depending on the gearbox you have no o/d or no "3rd" gear, more like 2 and 4.
