wrote: There ya go. Sort of like owning a Corvette. Can't take it to the dump, can't haul plywood home from the hardware, rides like stink, bottoms out on the world's smallest speedbump,...........but oh, what a chick magnet. I once asked a member of the fair sex what was it about the looks of a Corvette that so many women found so hard to resist. The answer was a classic, "Don't be so dense. Most women aren't really excited about the looks of a Corvette. What we're excited about is how we think *we're* going to look when riding in one." Women don't like riding in my 'Vette. And it doesn't bottom out on speed bumps and while the ride is stiff, what the hell do you expect out of a car that will do a 1/4 mile in 9.8 seconds - sheesh. However, it will not haul plywood - that I agree with. :) |

And who would use flaky Quicktime video for a presentation if they had any other choice. Nits. You've just got to pick them. |

What I know about marine diesels you could write on the tip of a hat pin, but isn't the Volvo D6 a decent engine? And who would use flaky Quicktime video for a presentation if they had any other choice. Got that right. Nits. You've just got to pick them. What would the world be without nit pickers? A whole like poorer I'm thinking. :) |

Yeah - I might agree with you on that. Hell, it you are going with outdrives, might as well put ETECs on it. :) |
