not really something dumb....but whenever i mention that my 2LT w/sunroof, auto and RS was only $37,500....they are always very surprised, they seem to think that a loaded V6 is like 45 K or something....hell you can get a loaded SS for 45 K (these are CDN $$ I am talking about here)

I had to take my camaro to a dealership for some warranty work on the paint peeling off on the bumper. It's not the dealership I bought from, but is the closest dealership to me. Anyway, I pull it back to the bodyshop, go inside and let the guy know what's going on, telling him it's warranty work, but never thinking to mention what kind of car it is. He walks out and after I show him the spot, he asks "Is this a new car?"

Several Dumb-A$$ Statements...

- How do you like your new Mustang?

- What's the HP on your Hemi motor?

- Did you get the 6 speed in your SS?

- How does that SS V-6 motor do on MPG?

- Nice SS you've got there. I ordered the Z-28 Convertible.

Haven't heard anything dumb YET, but one guy at work had a slip of the tongue and called it a Mustang... best part was I didn't even have to say anything, everyone around was like 'Ooooooo, a what?!'

"I like your car, have you seen one of those NEW Camaro's yet?" I just said, just in the magazines.

This thread could use a bump!

But I would also like to point something out that annoys me about people that I've been encountering a lot.

A co-worker asked: "If you don't mind me asking, how much did you end up paying?"

That's 100% fine. What I can't stand is people who say;

"Damn, what did you pay for that, $xx,xxx?" and try to make you sound "stupid" for paying whatever he said, even though its usually over what you paid...

I've been bombarded lately with the "does it transform?". My new standard answer is "no, it's always a badass"

I just walked about before I backhanded her..... It's no wonder this country is in such dis-array. Most Americans are idiots.
'Most Americans are idiots." No doubt!
