Re: The Destroyer of All Western Values
I'd sooner a four runner tbh. These days I only look at vehicles as mobile homes. I get a weird feeling when I drive by a dealership that has a fleet of work vans I'm like "woah a house is for sale"
Then again I'm going to put a camper on the Silverado my wife gave back to me

Suit yourself, I'd be just fine with that ZL1 hydra-matic transmission, apparently it's mind blowing.
I'd prolly go with the Camaro over that Dodge Demon tbh. If you wanna get crazy; Hennessey Camaro; 1000hp-1000lb-ft.

Smitty owns. I get a free education every time I log into the forum. There are a lot of smart people on here. I remember one thread where StA was discussing the current state of physics, Capps and BjornP know a lot about the EU and I talk to Capps about tv shows, Cmag and Okee are gun experts, Nuke is the meme king, and I talk to GCF about econ stuff sometimes. Martins aphorisms are also interesting as fuck. I learn something new every day when I come on here...DrYouth wrote:Not that I mind the drunk car talk on a TGIFriday...
But can we make the "HeyDaralon interviews Smitty about shiet" a regular feature on the MHF.
That was a sweet installment.
Gonna pedal home now and get some exercise before cracking some brewskies poolside.

I stand by my idea that Smitty should start his own podcast on politics, current events, military history, and America in general. I would be willing to throw him a few bucks a month as I imagine that many people on the forum would.

Why when we get it all for free here? We can't let normies in on this stuff. Then we wouldn't have anything to feel superior about.

I knew a guy that worked at Hennessy Motor Sports. He worked on a two thousand hp mustang. He's got his own shop now Boost something or other. He said that when Hennessy sold the shop to a Jew in LA the projects started piling up and customers were throwing money into a black hole with no returns. It's still there though so I guess somebody is getting what they payed for.Smitty-48 wrote:Suit yourself, I'd be just fine with that ZL1 hydra-matic transmission, apparently it's mind blowing.

Like I said, once you get up around 500hp-500lb-ft, starts to be diminishing returns beyond that, another 500hp-500lb-ft only buys you another half second off the drop and through 1/4 mile, when it's that close, the driver's gonna make the difference not the car.

Are American cars popular in Canada or are they all about the Pearl Harbor automakers?Smitty-48 wrote:Like I said, once you get up around 500hp-500lb-ft, starts to be diminishing returns beyond that, another 500hp-500lb-ft only buys you another half second off the drop and through 1/4 mile, when it's that close, the driver's gonna make the difference not the car.
