Does the shelby come with a oil diaper now?

I call second in line behind Travis

Wow. Haven't been on in awhile so I went back a couple pages. Last year I towed two douchetards and their Mustangs back onto the road. I suggested to both, to their face that they should get winter tires. They thanked me and agreed.

Note: neither Seer or Witt were involved in the douchetard in a ditch incidents. (I'd have charged them $$. )

Ive had a few conversations about this with people. But now i see you want to meet up to intimidate me i can see that you cant take criticism. Im not going to come meet you to discuss tires. Now my words may have been harsh. But not driving a properly prepared car is dangerous to pedestrians and other drivers. It is the stopping that scares me. My g/f signing up here had nothing to do with me. She has been an f-body girl for 8-9 years and had an ls car for 5-6 of them. She is the jackass that signed up on her own( she is a big girl and thinks on her own) i dont tell her what to do.

My words were probably harsh. But i am hardly a tough guy, i appoligize for the cheapskate etc words but driving an ill prepared car then complaing about people passing is like me speeding then complaining about the officer running a speed trap. After your rebuttle im going to let this subject go.

P.S. I drove my camaro 3 winters. And work weird ass hours 4am-5pm one day then 10am-3pm the next etc etc and got caught 2 times in snow. And never complained about others around me because i knew i was in the wrong....

You may be done, but I'm not.

We fundamentally disagree on the fact that just because it is the cold season and it snows I shouldn't be allowed to drive my car because it is 'a danger to pedestrians' - no, it's not. I've successfully driven my camaro all year, in both 110+ degree weather and 10 degree weather. I plan around snow days. ONE instance comes up where I get caught at work during a snow storm, and you want to bitch at me for 'putting pedestrians in danger'?

Hmm...then what about all the other cars that slip and slide on the road? Should they be banned from the road too for rolling over a slippery patch of snow or black ice? Just today I watched a guy in front of me fishtail across the road in a Mazda. I didn't slip once. Your logic is flawed, to say the least.

Anybody with a brain can realize that for these types of cars (rwd specifically) smaller wheels with winter tires are your best bet, and even with sandbags in the truck some recommend. This isn't feasable for me this year, so I had to make do. This doesn't automatically equate me to being a horrible driver and danger on the road...out of all the snow days we had, that was the ONLY time I -ever- fishtailed in the vehicle since I owned it. I fishtailed more in my trailblazer last year in comparison, so I don't see your point. I have never put a pedestrian in danger on the road even when I was fishtailing, and when I did fishtail I didn't even come within 5 feet of hitting any other vehicle on the road...and I without a doubt wasn't the only person fishtailing.

Secondly no, when a driver in front of you is having problems getting a running start for a few seconds, you don't pull into oncoming traffic and run a red light because the person is having trouble. If you think that is comparable to speeding then bitching about a speed trap...your neurons seem to be misfiring.

My entire point was you could have 'addressed' me without the nasty asshole comments...simple as that. There was no need for it, and it took me berating you to get an apology...next time, chill out. Joking around is one thing but coming across the way you did is childish.

ANYWAY.....

@demonspeed...yes, I hate the majority of people. you can thank Comcast for that (and I can elaborate..)

Let me see if I'm understanding your point. This post is insulting in several sentences and you basically call someone an asshole because you feel that you are OWED respect from them. Is this the correct interpretation of this post?

Awwwww. I remember when I had my first period too. Pretty sure I don't have to stick up for other grown ass men. You felt the need to comment about me so here I am.

I'm assuming you have lived in pgh long enough to know how winter driving is. Patomic is one of the worst roads to travel on in the winter...so logically it was such a great idea to take that road, in a camaro, without snow tires. So that's the other drivers fault? I need to take this approach to everything in life. Last time I checked you were the one threatening to physically assault people for having a different view than you, so the Internet tough guy shirt can be shipped to your house. How about your go drink you muscle milk and change your tampon.

[Jamie Mac]

[Trav2SS]

I like muscle milk.

[Swacer]

Think you guys could move your conversation elsewhere before the thread is locked?

Uh oh. Swacer has spoken and that means, well actually it doesn't anything.
