Will do! And I did not waste any time in accepting your suggestion of talking about cars and letting the infighting be a thing of the past!
-
I would LOVE to own both actually. That Ferrari just screams exotic Italian awesomeness even by today's standards when today's Toyota Camry's spank it in almost every performance metric! But yeah, one needs deep pockets to maintain it. Deeper than buying a new Ferrari even!

Grand Cherokee. All. The. Way.

I too want Tesla to stick around. My partner's Model S is problem free so far, he had a couple of recalls, but my wife's Fusion is on 3 going on 4 recalls so....that is not a problem for Ford, why would a recall be viewed as a problem for Tesla? Therefore, when my 2012 Acura's time is up in 4-5-6-7 years time, a Model 3 is what Im looking at!

Me....its in my name... OLDSMOBILE CUTLASS S CONVERTIBLE for me! Catching the tail end of the Olds in this scene!
-
Its been a while seen Ive done this. I thought Id stop being part of the problem and start being part of the solution So....after watching a few movies and seeing awesome cars and witnessing a few gems on the road as well....maybe its time to do this again. I saw Beverly Hills Cop II a while back and 2 of my all time faves are front and center in this movie. So....what would you pick? Axel Foley's deep undercover car in Detroit? 1986 Ferrari 308 GTS Or Axel''s deep, deep.....DEEP undercover car in Beverly Hills? 1968 Olds Cutlass S convertible

Yes! yes we can! I earned myself at least a week ban for this! So yeah...Ill take a week off! Ill read posts and just up vote where I see fit!

No alotted time.... Yet YOU shoved it in my face though.... But I aint allowed to shove it right back to you? Why are you defending yourself to me then? Im just a stranger on the internet... I am not important to you but you felt the need to put me in my place, right? OK....does this post ring a bell to you? Because YOU and I are engaging ιn EXACTLY what YOU are trying to school me in! And again in YOUR own words... If YOU REALLY went by your ORIGINAL THOUGHTS ABOUT NOT LETTING A CIRCLE JERK HAPPEN....MAYBE YOU SHOULDNT HAVE RESPONDED TO ME AT ALL!!! AND THAT WAY I WOULDNT HAVE THE NEED TO ADDRESS YOUR CHEAP SHOT AT ME AND THEREFORE YOU WOULDNT HAVE TO RESPOND BACK IN KINDNESS!!! So you see, WHAT YOU PREACH AINT EXACTLY WHAT YOUR ACTIONS SAY!!! I COULD CALL YOU A HYPOCRITE.... You see, I dont have a problem....I calls it how I sees it.... Always have! ALWAYS WILL! So....are you gonna respond back? Can YOU be the bigger man and I get the last word in? Are you strong enough for that? Because the more we continue this, the more YOUR preaching seems less sincere...
-
Knowing I wouldnt be present for a while...you felt the need to address me? YOU knew I was NOT gonna be responding yet you had the need to reply to me in that way? Only for you to shove this back to my face? I aint ruffled my dear.... Have you noticed all my responses to you have been question marks? Yeah....I responded....I felt you cheap shotted me! Because obviously this is the internets and we shouldnt let a stranger get to us yet YOU felt the need to address me on a post that was made 48 hours ago that YOU knew I made telling you I wouldnt be responding yet YOU took YOUR internet time to show YOUR bravado to me? Yup..... Irony.... YOU continue whining why it bothers ME... PS: I also discuss things calmly... But not when loud mouthed bravado types dont do it calmy... Much like yourself now! Irony part two... You once had a hissy fit with me when I used a broad stroke regarding Americans IGNORING the bigger picture when you told me I was a hypocrite.. Well guess what? YOU are doing the same thing now! WHINING about others WHINING ignoring the WHY!
-
Are you OK, Bro? Is anything bothering you? Because....I could flip this on you!!!! Why does it bother YOU that WE may have an issue with trolls down voting without any explanation? It looks like YOUR panties are worn too tightly to give a shyte what WE think?! Its only the internet!!! PS: It looks like YOU also wants to win an internet argument.... Because THAT answer is just plain douchey and it screams that YOU want to have THE edge... So....I repeat.... Anything bothering you for you to behave in such crappy manner? Looks like I broke other ban.. I giving myself another 24 hours....unless someone wants to cheap shot me....because yes, I feel like that was a cheap shot!!!!
-
I GAVE ONE! But YOU dont like it when people, because there are others like me, have time and time and again EXPLAINED AS TO WHY IT PISSES ME OFF!!! Drew and Dfelt have explained eloquently today for the millionth time!!! And...its ironic when YOU ALWAYS have to ask why and its ironic when you always get the same answer for the millionth time.. Its OK... Im a big boy, I could handle the heat. In fact. Im banning myself again so Drew has one less headache to deal with. 3 days Im banning myself and it starts...NOW! See ya Thursday at around 17:40 ish

CCAP....you got the +1 vote.... But then again....you jumped the gun on me...read the edited version.... But it seems like you want to know why I gave him a -1? HE IS A TROLL!!! HE IS A FORD SHILL! IF I GET ABUSIVE BEHAVIOR WARNINGS, ITS ON YOU!!!
-
I dont think I need an explanation why I down voted... And If I did give you one, William would give me another 2 points for abusive behavior for calling a spade a spade... But I did give a +1 to the poster who best explains my thoughts. His way though is a more political correct way of going about it. I dont do P.C. Heads up....you'd get plusieurs down votes today!!! I only get one...why? Again...your behavior and you playing coy!

Nissan Versa sedan - more utilitarian than versatile
oldshurst442 replied to trinacriabob's topic in Reader Reviews
Oddly enough, when I saw the pic of the Versa....that was the first thing to pop in my mind. I says to myself: "Cool. Cheap & affordable Japanese appliance at the cheap affordable Swedish appliance store!" Then I read your post and I was like: "Hey! I just said that!" (well, I thought about it, not actually talked it out verbally...but I do talk to myself sometimes but this time was not one of those times...) -
Yeah...I agree with what you are saying about Cadillac so Ill just modify my stance on the issue. Cadillac, the way they do their lights would just about be the only brand Id like to keep on seeing the heritage alive. And Chrysler to some degree. But the 300 is on its way out anyway...
-
I must have used YOUR post to quote @hyperv6 post...sorry..... Yes indeed, it was @hyperv6 that I was quoting and referring too!!! After all, it was HIS post!!!

Although I love cars of the 1950s and the fin itself, I feel its a styling element that really should stay in that time era. It was a different time then. Flight and the jet age were still in its infancy...even though flight was 50 years old and the rocket age was upon us then, flight still seemed like it was a new thing....partly because commercial flights and intercontinental flights were still a new thing... Flying was still romantic... Then there is the whole teenager revolution thing where teens cruise in cars to drive-In theatres and roller skating waitresses serve us hamburgers to our cars listening to Chuck Berry and Buddy Holly! I did say cruise....not text and use the GPS to tell us how to get there... We are very far away from that world. I dont think fins it they came back will have that same effect and feeling so it best stay in the past so we dont ruin that nostalgia!

That is funny... My grandparents and my mom came from a so called socialist country...Greece, to come to another socialist country...Canada. yet...no hand-outs were made to my family either...neither from Greece nor from Canada... That would be 4 generations now... Nope...nobody paid for my dad's education in socialist Canada. Nobody paid for mine nor my wife's education in Canada. We all paid for it by ourselves. My parents had money saved up for me...but my wife had poorer parents than mine so she had to work part time jobs... My kids...well. Im setting money aside for them. I have a healthy amount right now for them!!!\ The thing is...in socialist Canada...there are savings programs for education... The Canadian guvment gives me a dollar for every dollar I put into an education fund!!! The thing is...the USA offers that same deal... Yes Hyper...even in your capitalistic America...there are SOCIAL programs for the GREATER GOOD of YOUR people! Unless of course you want to abolish all that and go back to how it was... Law of the jungle? THAT is what you want to go back to? Because THAT is what your post suggests! We all have opinions dude! We are all entitled to them! But...when I talk to people...and my points get brushed under a rug to have YOUR points be front and center like its some sort of golden rule...then it ceases to be about respect! All that in your post... ALL JIBBERISH AND BULLSHYTE! It aint even an opinion or fact or an opinion based on fact! You have abusers in all kinds of political ideologies... You have lazy asses in all kinds of political ideologies... You have thieves and cons in all kinds of political ideologies... I aint trying to change your mind...don't care... But I see right through the bullshyte! You wanna talk about respect? HA! You ignore me!!! I don't care...makes me laugh... And do you know why? Because I know YOU cant DEAL WITH MY REALITY!!! MY reality is a complete opposite of yours! I don't let up on you, and THAT is why YOU ignore me!!!

I remember Cragar SS mags everywhere from 1974/1975/1976 Pontiac Trans Ams to 1971-1974 Plymouth Satellite/Roadrunners to 1968-1969 Chevrolet Camaros/Pontiac Firebirds to Chevy Vans And they were all jacked up like in those pics! I guess, any which way you look at it, the more things change the more they stay the same. All the crazy things young guys and gals do to their rides... Stance is everything though. And depending what you want your project car to be, its all good. If I was doing a tuner Civic, then that Civic above is where Id wanna be.. If I was doing a 1950s or 1960s American Cruiser, then a slight rake but with ample ground clearance in the front like Balthy's example is where Id be. A resto-mod pro touring 1970 Olds 442 would be level and low to the ground (not too low, but in today's standards for perfect handling and braking low) But, Id also love to do a 1970s themed muscle car and it be jacked in the back, baby!!!!
-
Yup....I remember this all well. Even on vans. Something like that:
-
^^^ jacked up rear ends...and I guess its the image of a Civic rather than a muscle car. This one made me chuckle...and admired at the same time. Its a lost art to see cars this way. I prefer jacked up rear ends rather than super low or hellaflush...
