Default RE: Ridiculous 0-60 time


ORIGINAL: RoswellGrey

I dunno. I kinda feel sorry for the kid having to deal with a brand-new Challenger at age 16. He'll never have the fond memories of having driven some pile of junk that was built before he was born as his first car. Never have to pour his meager wages from working at a Vickers gas station down a rat hole. Never have to learn the back ways into the local junkyards to salvage parts late at night or on Sundays. Never have to wonder if will even start when he wants to go someplace. ...
You brought tears to my eyes, until I remembered the Porsche my parents gave me were I graduated from High School....NOT...I had to buy my own second-hand 1970 4-sp Hemi Superbird....poor me
(My frist car was a 1966 Charger that needed some body & interior work....was very nice were I traded it in...you learn a lot about cars when you have to fix-up $500.00 cars........)
