You handled it like a mature man. Very strange anyone would act that way at any age.

With the name of 'BeasstMode' that was an excellent and reserved comeback... Kudo's to you... YOU were definitely the man that deserved the respect. It would of been easy to go off at stupid comments.. Youngman/Sir.... you have my respect... and .... by the way... I was born in the late 50's and I love muscle car music(exhaust) and loud classic rock-n-roll.... Our ordered 2SS will have tint and custom graphics on before it ever leaves the dealer...

Old man in a Camaro story time? OK - I'm 52 and act roughly 18-22 most times...Anyways, just cruising along earlier today on a 4 lane regional road - in the slow lane because I had just finished detailing the poor thing to within an inch of its life and the people on the sidewalk needed to see it and hear the blues oozing out the windows from the B.B King Bluesville station.
In the rearview a nice looking red with twin deck stripes and an extractor hood coming up the inside lane. I can hear him (because I turned the music down slightly and thought it might be worth a listen to the V8). I approached my turn, signal up - slowing down and leaving a gap in front of me as I do so. Pulling in the driveway where the classics car show was gathering up - and the old men sitting in lawn chairs behind their cars sat. Then he punches it - switches into my lane and all the head snap to see wtf made that noise. Old car guys still love the sound of a hearty V8 being stepped on. Lovely. Made me want a V8 again... bastard ! Oh - the guy driving... older looking than me. Maybe 55-60. Nice. |

That jackhole was driving around in a Trans Am with a thunderchicken on the hood, tossing back a few road beers behind the wheel, and cranking REO Speedwagon in the '80s, probably with some blow in the glove box for good measure. Who's he think he's kidding?

I would have been walking around your Camaro yelling, "Cool!" Tara PS Several of the Camaros that I've owned have had headers and modified exhaust, nice stereos/cassette/sound systems! Yes, I have adapted well to digital music, iPhones/iPods and Sirius XM.

Yeah, as others have said, it's not all about age. At 58 the only thing I can't warm up to is black wheels. Some (cars w/ black wheels) look good, others just ok, but most just look like the wheels are missing, or nobody ever cleans the brake dust off.
This beast I'm driving is not a mid-life crisis, it's just the next installment of my seeming inability to grow up. Or get old. Or something. |

hey guys, i honestly meant no disrespect when i said he was a "old" man.. my parents are in there mid 40's and i don't consider them old by any means. i was just pointing out that he was older than me by say 20 to 30 years. at the dealership i work at the "older" guys are mainly the ones with the badass, super loud built cars coming through, :respect:
hope everyone enjoyed the weekend! |
