1984 Chevrolet Camaro Z/28

PostPosted: Mon Apr 01, 2013 12:03 pm    Post subject: Frustrated Reply with quote

With all of the problems I have been having with my cars, I finally made an important decision.

I am going to part out both of my stupid old unreliable cars and buy a newer Honda Civic.

I know this probably won't be the most popular choice around here, but I just can't deal with all this crap anymore. Is it really worth hundreds of hours and thousands of dollars just to have a little more power and worse fuel economy than a 4-banger commuter car? I don't think so.

I'm done.

No sale. You need to have pictures and a well laid out plan to pull off an April Fools joke around here.

Like that time I had a few Crewbies going thinking I bought a Mustang! Laughing Cool

But that is actually plausable. Gabe is too much of a gearhead to give up performance cars cold turkey. Wink

Well apparently it is too hard to fool you guys around here. Very Happy

Big V8s in old cars are too near and dear. Could you see me driving a Honda Civic? No way.
Plus, I've had my Camaro for a quarter of my entire life. It's too much a part of me to give up now! Laughing

You need to get more years under your belt.

I have had my Camaro for 41% of my life.

54% of my life. I'm going to bet that Richster is the only person here that can beat that number.

Math is easy, John.

23 . 100 / 43 = 53%~

Cool

I am obviously the odd man out here. Despite purchasing my first Camaro at nineteen I am at a lowly 23%. Shrug

I would blame the smart phone I used to post that, but no one would believe anyway.
So I'll blame the senility. Sad
