You know you own a F-body when... I came across this in another thread so just thought i'd share it here on the WestCoast
You know you own a F-body when..
...You lock the doors with the t-tops off.
...You CAN tell the difference between a '67 and a '68.
...You had an easier time breaking up with your girlfriend, than selling your camaro.
...You swear chevy 350 is the greatest piece of technology ever invented.
...You refer to mustangs as "rustangs".
...You rip the fuel injected "junk" out of your post-1984 f-body, and opt for the "superior" carburator.
..."Smokey and the Bandit" is your favorite movie.
...1967 was the best year of your life, and you weren't even alive.
...you hear the word "rally", you think of rims.
...Your dream car's engine is going to cost more than the car.
...You think arrowheads and bowties go together like PB and jelly.
...You consider the year 1970 1/2 a turning point in your life.
...You deny the fact the Pontiac made TURBO firebirds, but you secertly want one.
...To you, IROC is a car, not a race.
...Cobra isn't just a mustang, but an ancronym for Cars Owned By Retarded ********.
...You know that horsepower sells cars, but torque wins races. And you use that to explain why f-bodies are no longer made, but Mustangs are.
...Dodges' smell funny.
...You swear that your f-body can easily outrun a corvette, that is, once you take out your 305 and drop in a 350.
...You have to fix your "door sag" at least once a month.
...Dan's Auto Garage is on speed dial.
...You get pissed when someone calls your shaker a hood scoop.
...Your alphabet isn't A-Z, but T/A-Z28 (with IROC, SS, and RS somewhere in the middle).
...Your idea of art is a three foot tall, black and gold bird on your hood.
...To you, 'buy low, sell high' means buying a firebird or camaro before 2002, then selling it after 2002.
...You know that hump in between your backseats in your 2nd and 3rd gen.'s all too well.
...FWD makes NO sense to you.
...You know all about the cupholder trick in your 2nd gen (thats a tough one).
...Your life fell into a spril of depression, drugs, and drunkeness after the Camaro and Firebird ceased to exist in 2002.
...You think corvette owners are jealous of your "real" car.
...Your five basic food groups are Mustangs, Civics, Challengers, Eclipses, and Novas.
...You are always explaining to Dodge fans that "ram air" is not what his pickup breathes.
...You really believe that Chevrolet will bring back the Camaro in 2007.
...You do not own a third generation 4-cylinder from the 80's. No really, if you do, you do NOT belong here.
...You wonder how Pontiac can build Aztek's, but not Firebirds (Those GM exec's must NOT have a conscience).
...You are going to buy a Pontiac Solstice and put Firebird decals on it.
...You still call your 2002 Camaro, a "new" car
...If you've ever had a t-top fly off of your car
...When you'll spend money on mods instead of taking vacations
...When your wife tells you it's her or the car. And you tell her best of luck with her new husband
...You hear the words "nice car" every time you fill up
...you use 6 extentions and 4 swivels just for the #8 plug
...when you turn the radio down and roll down the window to hear your exhaust when going under an over pass
...When you realize how hard it is to get in the passenger side and then once your in.....your like what the fu*k is this hump in the floor
...when you become an expert at catching the rear end of your car whenever it steps out of line
...the only time you let your friends drive your car is when you tell them to take it around the block and get on it to see what your exhaust sounds like from outside the car
...When your neighbours ask you when are u going to put a muffler on your car

Here are a few of my originals:
...You always watch the reaction of those around you as you start your car.
...Each car alarm you set off in the parking structure is worth five points.
...As you are flying down the freeway at 95mph you complain to your passenger about the congested traffic and ask if there is a faster way to get there.
...You can change your fuel pump in less than 5 mins in the AM/PM parking lot.
...Deleting AC is almost worth it considering passenger side spark plug access, almost.
...You consider trans pans with no drain plugs to be one of the biggest engineering oversights of all time.
...You have a code scanner to your left to check the SES light that just came on without having to stop.
...Pulling engines from the top is, "a thing of the past".
...You are still beating Mustangs 10 years newer than your car.
I'll try to think of more.
