GM Interiors- Before and After
I don't think black's the best color to show off interior improvements. Everything just gets lost in a sea of darkness.

Hybrid Volvo!
You could fill that blank with about any car, and more likely than not, it's happened.

Sexual Preference
nah, just complimenting creativity.

Sexual Preference
Nice word order. Most people would've thrown a redundant "got" in there.

Sexual Preference
That's the ideology of the Kinsey scale. Under it, most people are classified bi, just to varying degrees. Guy A finds both sexes attractive, but has a preference for women, etc. It uses 7 degrees instead of 5, though. It seems pretty logical to me that some guys would be closeted about some slight bisexuality, especially since I grew up around a lot of guys who were so homophobic that they wouldn't even acknowledge when another guy was attractive or not. Example, based on actual events: me: man, that guy is ugly. friend: I wouldn't know. me: dude, he's so asymmetrical, he looks like something by Picasso! friend: yeah, whatever. homo.

How old are you?
I'm twenty. I can't think of anything important in the automotive world that happened on my birthday. I know the year wasn't. Stupid 80's.

Official Chrysler Aspen Official Pictures
Yuck. When automakers make big, blocky, monochromatic interiors with no soft lines or curves to them, it gives the appearance that they were made from a LEGO kit. And the exterior's pretty lame too.

So, I guess sciguy fits under the "other" category, huh? :huh: :P

remember this classic Challenger?
Sales Figures, eh? Here are the sales figures for the Mustang II vs 74-78 Camaros: 74: Mustang-386,000 Camaro-151,000 75: Mustang-186,000 Camaro-146,000 76: Mustang-188,000 Camaro-183,000 77: Mustang-153,000 Camaro-218,000 78: Mustang-192,000 Camaro-272,000 Not exactly what I'd call total dominance by the Camaro. The Mustang II was hardly a sales flop and was embraced in the gas crisis times of the 1970s. I agree that the Mustang II strayed pretty far from its pony car roots, but so did the F-bodies, just in a different direction. Unless you consider an eleven inch increase in length to be staying true to the pony car formula.

Wow. This thing is better than I ever would have imagined.

The Mustang is good. This Camaro is evil. Evil > Good

remember this classic Challenger?
The only year the II didn't have a V8 offering was in 74. They quickly fixed this and offered a 302 in them for the rest of the generation. I agree the styling was bad. Throwing a Torino-style grille on it was inexcusable laziness on the part of Ford's designers. I'm not so upset about the decrease in size, though. The mustang was in need of downsizing after the 71-73 model years, and Ford took it too far (should've just reduced it back down to the size of the 64 1/2) but I'd rather have that than the huge boulevard cruiser size of the 70s Camaros.

I have a crush on who?
Cheers and Gears: the only site on the web where a Camaro thread can digress to flirtation and a flirting thread can digress to Camaros. Gotta love it. B)

For comparison, the overall length and wheelbase for the 4th gen were 193 and 101 inches, respectively.

What is your anti drug?
Yeaahhhhhhhhhh, pretty much. Don't they list ingredients in order starting with the main one? Because on the Nyquil bottle, the first thing listed is alcohol. Edit: Yep, I just checked and it's 25% alcohol.

What is your anti drug?
Idunno, people being doped up has been pretty detrimental to other societies. Just look at China in the 19th and early 20th centuries, where the opium problem was so bad, they resorted to public executions to get people to quit. Of course, Commmunist dictatorships aren't exactly known for taking the most humanitarian routes to fix problems, but still . . . Just because the problem isn't as noticeable doesn't mean it isn't as serious. As for anti-drugs, I agree that it's weak to have one specific reason not to do drugs. Besides, I don't need them. I'm a pretty chill and trippy guy anyway, and I have a fondness for weird/artsy stuff without the help of any drugs. Most of my friends tell me I act like a pothead, and I've had several who were shocked to find out I've never been high (unless you count the Nyquil high I've been on the last couple days due to a cold.) Of course, my chill demeanor and appearance (long hair, large pupils) also help this assumption.

Agreed. I've always felt that it's a person's attitude, not their situation in life, that defines them as trashy or not.

Uh, isn't someone paid to watch for these...?
Well, it's not exactly an inconsistency, but my friend Patrick has a great story from his job working at a movie theater. If you don't know, movies still come in four separate reels that they switch over during the movie, just like they did in the early days of film (You can see the switch time when an oval blips for a second on the top right corner of the screen.) Well, his theater played the movie "Soul Plane" for two weeks with the second and third reel without anyone noticing. They only found out because someone who had seen it in another theater pointed it out to them.

Famous celebrities from your hometown
Well there are only two from my hometown of Dunn, which is two more than I thought there would be. One's an actress named Debbi Morgan, the other's a composer named Link Wray. Here's a cool trivia tidbit: One of the original rockabilly artists, singer/guitarist Link Wray is credited with having invented the "power chord," which has become the basis for modern rock, heavy metal, alternative and thrash music.

Ocn's quote of the day
I'm definitely one who likes hearing the car as it accelerates. There's just something unnerving about pressing the pedal and not hearing a response from under the hood.

My House is coming along
Well, some would argue that you can never have enough garage space. The house looks like it'll be beautiful when it's done, lakefire.
