Well sounding pissed or not, I hope you arent actually getting pissed about someone disagreeing with you. I wasnt mean or rude or insultive....just pointing out a few of my own observations and opinions.

Personally, for the money I'd rather buy a BMW 330i, but thats just me. I will agree, however, that the TL is a close runner-up (again, for me).

Hal, no offense meant at all, but did you ever think that maybe part of the reason that lots of people always agree with you everywhere and not many people disagree with you anywhere is because you are "the boss?" :shrug: Not saying thats entirely whats going on, but whatever. I dont own a Geo, and I say they are the greatest total package car ever. Am I right? God no.

bad30th, I think you nullified your own point about ignorance about cars with your last little bit about me buying the perfect car for me.What? Did I not do enough research on myself to discover that a horsepower beast with bucket racing seats and a V8 that could conveniently tow the boat that I have no intention of owning any time soon is the perfect car for me? I must not know enough about cars to realize this.
You're bypassing my point. Of course you didnt want that kinda of car.....you did buy one. Point is, for a lot of people, that Camaro or Mustang is their perfect car. And for you to think of it as trash just because it isnt your perfect car or because of some ill-gotten preconceived notion is ignorance. I never said you dont know enough or anything about cars, but its obvious that your magazine-and-online knowledge-base revolves around what you are interested in (namely, luxo-sport sedans), leaving out what you arent interested in (namely Camaros and Mustangs, etc).

And you never answered my question about whether you think the drivers you see in these cars (fat middle-aged women, men with mullets and mustaches, or obnoxious latinos ) are trash, or just the shitty cars are trash, or all the cars are trash....

Again, no offense man.... (maybe I should just put this in my sig. )
