I've seen more pissin' matches and bickering in the past few weeks than I'm used to seeing. I have even participated in a heated discusion myself. I'll blame it on the summer heat. I think we all need to make an attempt to think about what we are saying before we hit the "send" key. This place should be for discussion, exchange of ideas and thoughts. Let's keep it a nice place to visit.

This place is getting ridiculous. You ask a simple question and have to listen to the sarcasm and get attacked.

Well it's supposed to be like a bunch of guys hanging out in the garage talking cars and having good time, but you have the few who would not be in the crowd if not for internet.

I think I know what started this...and I am responsible for getting involved in one exchange that just got under my skin...and I posted a comment....then offered to delete my posts if the other person would also...that happened...
So I apologize for reacting out in the open on the forum,but not for what I said...and it won't happen again...
