Yeah, but he must be napping or in a good mood, as I'm amazed how long this threads been going.

This is unreal.. If you read the original post about my compairing the c5 and c6 you would understand. I have read dozens of post about the same topic, and learned from each of them. I have also read dozens of post that were of no interest to me, so I moved on. If someone puts up a post that does not interest you, don't read it, but it may interest another. That is why I was mad, because it got blocked for no known reason to me. I shoved my foot in my mouth by posting a remark on the open forum instead of sending a pm to Crumpy. I had every right to be upset, but no right to air it on the forum. I was right, then wrong. Done deal, I will use the pm from now on....

Having a thread locked or a post deleted is a rite of passage.
Grumpy's even got to me once, thats OK, it IS a rite of passage. Overall, i agree that its a good thing to keep the riff raff down, but the hard part is defining the line, and the Mods have to make some decisions in gray areas every day. I woyuld NOT want to be a moderator!

As for C5 C6 .... I would like a C6-ZO6 427 engine and the 6 speed padleshift auto in my C5. That would be best of both worlds in MY book!

Anyway, we are filling up a lot of disc space over nothing, so I'll sign off before this too, gets locked......... for redundance and irrelevance.

Probably not going to endear yourself any further by calling him "Crumpy".
