Sorry gang, Rant Mode On!

Some folks really have the nerve to come into our house and start talking smack, and then take exception to it when we make a perfectly reasonable suggestion as to what they should do with thier smack.

His exact words:

Mike,
If you don't want to get beat up on by Dodge's or Chevy's then buy a Chevy.
54regcab,
I haven't seen a 5.4 reg cab break out of the 16's in the 1/4 yet.

To which I replied, and I quote:

"Sweet99chevy,
C'mon down to Houston, Houston Raceway Park is still open and I'll be most happy to hand you your Chevy on a platter. Read the signature carefully before you reply.

Best run to date (at HRP) 13.162 @ 104.85 mph, 60ft time: 1.964 sec. on street tires.

Don't call me a liar, I have witnesses, mostly F bodies left decaying in the sun."

Was that out of line? I felt I was defending the honor of my heritage and legacy, and only threw down the gauntlet as a response to inane comments. How about some feedback, gang.

Rant Mode Off.

Keep it up i'm personally happy to have someone like you representing us lighting owners. But we just don't need to be starting any wars, lol. Brian

 

OOOOOHHHHHH where is that from, what post??? I will go there & talk ***** with them all day long! I think you were very just in your words! I would have done the same (if I had your mods) & then some.

Dunbarton,

I am not unhappy w/you, somebody needs to keep those guys in line. I know that you have been agitating, but you went there in good fun and were a gentleman about it. A little friendly rivalry is ok, it keeps things interesting and R & D moving forward.

What irritates is the fact that this guy comes to our house talking smack, and then posts those lame stats for his chevy. I just wanted to show him what a "real" (read that "Ford") truck can do. I know everyone doesn't and/or can't have a Lightning, but that kind of cheap grandstanding w/o anything to to back it makes me see red.

Chevy won't make a truck to compete with Lightning but will compare to their CARS?
Which are short lived I might add.
GOOOO! Wyldman GO!
The kids are just upset because they don't have one and now they want one. You know how kids are, they get that way when they don't have their way. It's let over from the "terrible twos".
