You should have replied...."no, but I had to throw in a double order of Chicos to seal the deal"

I always tell 'em JC Whitney, whether it's for the Vettes or the Harleys.

F.G.

Thats a good one right there. By the way, you just helped me decide what I want for lunch tomorrow.

Frizlefrak

I've been jonesin' for Chicos lately too.

Getting gas one day and a dumb 20 yo grease monkey says to me, you should really take that exhaust off and put a good set of Thrush mufflers on, right. Then chimes in with oh yeah gotta change those wheels (sawblades) you shouldn't put aftermarket stuff on a vette.

some ignorant guy:
"an LT1...so it's all low end"

my mom:
"how much did you spend on it?! $40,000?!"

unrelated to Vettes... but last year I had some guy at a gas station ask me if my 20 year old Grand Prix was "that new one." My response, "buddy, they don't even make Pontiacs anymore"

The more connected we get, the more distant from reality we get.

The most annoying question I get is, "What year is it?" I don't want to lie, so I tell them to point to a part and I'll tell you what year that part is. Of course this completely dumbfounds people and makes them not even go any further.

I get fuel mileage questions alot too. ...and I get called a liar when I tell them what get.

I also like, "Is it stock?" when I pull up.

I am a teacher and kids are so frickin dumb. You wouldnt believe how seemingly every parent of theirs has a faster car. Most are mercedes lexus but all 90s crap. I always laugh and dont try to explain or i end up wanting to shoot myself.

Worst ive heard and it hurt the kid's dad more than me: kid said, "daddy daddy look at the mustang." The dad did a face palm

Frizlefrak

Kids are video game / cell phone addicted goofballs these days. They have zero social skills, and most can't even make eye contact now. Technology and indifferent parenting have turned them into zombies with non-existent life skills....

Mistaking a Vette for a Mustang is minor compared to the other deficiencies in thier personalities today. Of course, I'm sure our parents thought we were social retards in the 70's too.

Hmm...I wonder what parents thought of their kids in the 60s and their hippie movement?

Touchton94LT1

Not all kids are this way >.> not me atleast . Oh yeah something stupid.. "I bet my honda can take it"

'70's? In the 70's I was in Japan, Vietnam, Thailand, Okinawa, and CA, but, I was somewhat of a social retard. I haven't changed a whole hellova lot since then either.

ch@0s

Me at parts counter: "I need a _____ for a 91 corvette."
Girl at parts counter: " Who makes that?"
Me: "Do you mind if I get someone else to help me?"

Frizlefrak

They thought they were smelly social retards, and they were right! I do know of a few hippies that own Vettes though. One of them even rattle canned his Vette. Maybe the drugs finally took their toll.

Frizlefrak

That was my older brother.

I was the hard rocker gear head high school kid then. Every weekend, car up on jack stands, Ted Nugent blaring out the window, me under the car on a creeper with the tattered Aerosmith concert shirt on swinging a ratchet with a Marlboro dangling out of the corner of my mouth, and my beer swilling delinquent buddies as my wingmen.

No wonder the old man next door looked at me funny over the fence.

PLRX

His vision was bad....


Ch@0s post was funny and reminded me the day I went to the BMW dealer to buy Castrol TWS for the ZF.

"Can I help you?"

"Yes, Id like three quarts of Castrol TWS"

"What type and year of the car"

"96 Corvette"

His confusion was 10 out of 10

ch@0s

You should have asked him if it was time to change your diff fluid.

PLRX

I did but, he sent the whole thing to blackstone for an analysis.

ch@0s

Was Agent Mulder to busy to look at it?
