Default I know you guy's hate it...

But this car cleans up nicely!! and it runs' drives nicely!
Does not even compare to the F-bod with regard to perf.. But it get's 24-27 mpg.

It's a sweet DD...IMO.. You can't deny that it's a pretty sweet looking car for an old guy like myself..


Got to start on the "Z" now! It's a beautiful day... Enjoy...




I need some more Corona/Limes....

I really like the looks of the SRT versions. They had some nice ones at the Hot Rods for Heroes car show.

Q: Can you put a lime or any other fruit in your beer?

A: No, fruit is completely off limits in beer. If one were to put fruit in a beer, they might as well put a little umbrella in it and call it a "beera colada".

Limes arent a fruit, they are a vegetable.

The kind of men that like keeping in touch with & getting back in touch with old friends? Not everyone troll them trying to pick up chics, some people use it for photo sharing, to send friends party invites and other social things that involve having friends.

I've got back in touch with several old buddies and a couple girls via myspace that I had lost touch with from people moving off, military buddies, etc.

You have a car person 'myspace' account at Fquick, it's just more tailored to car people, so what's the difference? It's just a social network. Some people use them to spam or meet people, other people use it as a portal or communications tool.

I like to go to myspace because I can read up on some of the MMA fighters I'm a fan of, I can search around on the band pages & check out music for free that I may otherwise never hear or be exposed to. I'm also on some lists for performers so if they have tour dates, I get the notification via the myspace messages for upcoming events. It's a great marketing tool, if you have a business, you should look into using it to advertise.

So, is being narrow minded to exploring the uses of myspace manly? Maybe you are just worried too much about what other people think. I don't give a ****, I don't use myspace for stupid reasons, it works well for what I use it for although it has it's flaws & spammers.

If you have any other questions about manliness, we can go to the range & see who's a better shot, we can go to the track & see who get's their *** drug....I was born & raised on a small ranch in Texas, was in the Army, trust me, my myspace account doesn't make me any less of a man.

And to close: Lighten the **** up dude, the man law stuff is from a funny *** commercial, so go to www.ebay.com & buy a ******* sense of humor.
