A quick search on StevieB, in case you've never read his posts, reveals a competent writer and a thoughtful member. Seems he felt the need to test the short-bus waters - perhaps a feeling of complacency on the part of the Grammar Police here as of late . . .

Perhaps, but here, you're only as good as your last post. With any luck, we all just read his last.

Oh, and ET, I read my 9 year old nephew's homework, and it was much better written than the post in question.

Damn dude, you can't spell worth sh$t! The funny thing about reading this post is that I was actually trying to pronounce the words as they were spelled. Now put down the bottle, go back to school, and learn to scribble a little better. BTW, I like the charger.

Seriously folks, this was just a joke to see the reaction. I made a topic like this within the last year or so. It brought on a lot of laughs, so I thought I would try it again. I really did have the cars I mentioned, and this may not really be C5 related. We do have a lot of safety futures on our modern cars we didn’t have back then. I didn’t get ANY tickets or have any trouble handling those cars. My brothers and I were all gear heads, so it wasn’t like I was the average 17 year old. I had been driving my grandfathers 3 on the tree Rambler since I was about 12. I see a lot of posts talking about wiping out in a C5. I think we have a lot of drivers around here that just don’t know how to handle a powerful car. Those cars I had when I was around 17 were pretty powerful, and I was just a kid. I managed to always keep it under control and never lost it.
I guess I got a few chuckles here, which was my intent.
Happy motoring, and be safe,

Steve
