Okay... when the hell did I ever say a Rabbit was a performance car? I don't recall that. My point was that even though the car is over 20 years old, it still would beat modern hatchbacks that happen to have about the same specs. Fiesta, 500, whatever it is. It is a great car in its class. If you have any brains on racing, there are different classes for cars. The old Rabbit usually is near the top on the smaller and curvier racetracks within its class. Yeah, they don't have much top speed at 90 ish mph due to the close ratio transmission, but with a lower stress bar, the thing handles like it's on rails. I challenge one of you to buy a stock Fiesta, and bring it over.
As for the Ranger, it does damn well for a smaller pickup. And it's a lot more capable than one of those Polaris Rangers.
Ever see this? And by the way, the Ranger needed a new battery to fix it up for good. I thought the crank sensor got grease on it again, but nope. Battery was shot.
It handled all of this sod with no problems at all. Try that with a fake Ranger. Yeah, one of them Polaris ones. Also, that part of the yard would make it very difficult to maneuver a full size with a 8 foot box. Yeah, it won't haul as much of a load, but it still is handy and does work.
As for the Z06 being manual only, congrats. I did not know that.
I don't read much on Corvettes ever since GM went to hell. Went to the car show the other day, and saw a lot of new Camaros. Wish I had worn my "Ford, built without your tax dollars" shirt then. I didn't even look twice at those new Camaros. Actually, a few times, I did not even look once. Just walked right past them. Noticed I wasn't the only one to pretty much ignore them. I had no idea there would be any at the show.
I know the third generation Vettes have fiber optics to light up stuff in the dash and console. As well as them being a ridiculously well handling car for its weight and size. I've actually driven one.
Keep poking and prodding. I'll just keep hoping a septic tank or sewer cleaning truck tips over onto your front yard and spills #### all over the front of your house and lawn. Better yet, that wave of #### might break the windows and spill into your house. Or even better yet, you'll be mowing the lawn when it happens.
Chalk up one more reason why I prefer people to shut up, and carry on. And usually stay the hell away from me. Not gonna happen with BS like this flying around. There are good folks out there, but they sure are damn hard to find. Turn left, someone ####ing around with a smart phone. Turn left, someone #####ing on facebook about what happened on some stupid reality show. Looking in between the cracks, you'll see someone good, but there often is no way to get a hold of them.
Most of my life went to hell senior year of HS. Unfortunately, I don't give enough of a #### to change. And it isn't all my fault. I've lost faith in people for the most part. They are completely blind. Trying to find the few good ones is simply too much trouble.
I'm about ready to quit here.
