Alot of newbies make the same mistake, and we go over the difference between FREE speech, and what goes on in a privately owned and operated forum, such as this.
Having said that, I assumed you were, in general, just looking for a good chat about cars, so I segued clumsily into car talk and spent most of the message talking about cars.
My experience with Mustang owners was perhaps not "the average" owner, since this was a large group of knowledgable folks in a car club. Sports Coupe was all we called it (I am a former Mustang owner, but haven't owned one in for about 15 years).
And my wife, God bless her (I can say that here can't I?), bought me my Corvette
Now I REALLY HATE YOU! :)
Other than parhaps a Cadillac here or there, I consider the Vette to be GM's greatest car.
After my Mustang ownership, I drifted off into the Jap supercar thing (Turbo Supra, 300ZX TT, Mitsu 3000GT) for a while.. now, all I got is a Minivan!
Thanks. BTW -- EVERYONE -- I'm a little disappointed that no MOPAR guys* jumped in to spice things up. C'mon people, we were talking 60's horsepower here. Where are you Road Runner and GTX fans? You Barracuda/Challenger guys? Charger/Coronet devotees? Am I the only one old enough to remember the Daytona and SuperBird?
* NOTE: "Guys" in this context is intended as a non gender-specific term.
Understood. (Although some of us might view that "Jap" comment as a bit offensive, no?)
Anyway, my sympathies on the minivan.
Ditto. I feel your pain.
There was never a finer day than trading in the minivan and putting that regrettable, though necessary, motoring phase behind me!
I shamefully admit trying to make it 'cool' too by dressing it up with wheels and tires...but you just can't polish a turd!
