You're welcome. :D



In case you haven't noticed, I don't discuss the martial arts online anymore. Too many people take it to a different place as a challenge to their manhood or something. To me, it's no different than people cheering on their favorite football team or something.


Btw, it's 2013 and GSP still sucks.

And was wondering why there wasn't a MMA forum

We can start a MMA thread when events come up. If it gets out of hand I just wont take part in the nonsense. lol

LOL! Yep. Nothing personal taken on my end just a friendly difference of opinion. But... He does average more posts a month I have my entire time I've been a member on the site. LOL!!! Steve I see why you don't have FB! I don't even know how you have time for all the car forum posting.

What is this armbar you speak of? Some kind of drinking establishment?



I've heard of this mythical creature SB Cobra. But it's kinda like Blownaltered's wallet in a strip club. It goes in, but never comes out to be seen again.

Since the C5, people have been enjoying Corvettes as DD/only cars for awhile. Yes it's a toy but one that you can use as an only car as well. It's nowhere near as boutique as you may think it is.

It's what is more practical for YOU. I thought the same thing thinking I needed the backseat for my kids when I bought the Mustang instead of the Vette in reality when I take it out I'm usually by myself or rare occasion my wife or 5 yr old little girl rides with me. But when we all go out together we always take my truck cuz the baby seat for my 8 month old has to face to the rear which doesn't fit well in the Mustang. So its really as practical as a Corvette is at this point for ME.

Well yea, my point was all stangs should be dragging nuts, they are almost sports cars. The back seats are worthless, just to have them to sell the cars as practical when they aren't really.

Ya I agree, its usable but hovering in the realm of not being practical. My point is a Mustang IS more practical than a Vette in every aspect. Arguing anything different is just silly to me.

My mom, 4 year old in a carseat, and her 9 year old sister all fit comfortably during a 4 hour drive from OKC to Irving. Just moved the front seats forward so the girls in the back could have leg room. I seriously can't imagine full grown adults having too much more trouble. I'd be slightly cramped but, I don't think it is unrealistic to think 4 people can't reasonably fit in a Mustang. I'm 6'0 though. Not sure how tall you guys are.

LOL@ using a stock fox tach as an exuse. No one has ever relied on one of those to run a fox! They either had a monster tach or shift when it stops pulling. Not my fault you can't drive your car by feel!
