Seen a ton of them. Crapmaro and Poorvette for Camaro. Government Motors, Frod (as in Fraud), Rustang and Mustank for Mustang, Uber Beetle for 911.Hi - It’s all part of a long history of rivalries. Back in the ‘60s people would ask if my GTO stood for Gas Tires and Oil. When I was a youngster spending summers at our lake cottage it was “Get an Evinrude” when you saw somebody yanking the pull-cord on their Mercury or Johnson outboard motor that wouldn’t start easily. Power boaters call sailboaters “Blow Boaters” and their retort is “Power Polluters”. How about “When are you going to get rid of that “Fix Or Repair Daily” piece of junk”. I’m sure many of you can add to this list of inter rivalry insults. Most of the time they’re tongue-in-cheek remarks and the rest are from a-holes...Bruce
That's really interesting.Seen a ton of them. Crapmaro and Poorvette for Camaro. Government Motors, Frod (as in Fraud), Rustang and Mustank for Mustang, Uber Beetle for 911.
Growing up black, attending private schools, and playing hockey, I quickly learned that it’s not about what they call you, it’s about what you answer to.
Haha good one! Well it did attract a lot of dudes I'll give you that. Thankfully the Mustang has a broader appeal in that regard.Wow As soon as you mentioned Camaro. I thought you were going to say the dude walked up and asked you for a date.
I kid.
God I already miss my Corsa extremes and that v8 sound :(Today I drove down a fairly residential street with a big park on one side and a stop sign at every block. I had it in Sport mode and would goose it from each stop, then let the RPMs drop on the way to the next. Some men and women turned their heads. Every kid turned their head.
No one turns their head to look at a Tacoma.
I work with a couple guys who have Porsche suv's and they get all bent out of shape when I tell them that they are nothing more than a VW on steroids. I even had one guy argue about it with me, he said no a Porsche is a Porsche and a vw is a vw. Then I reminded him that vw was developed by Ferdinand Porsche under orders from Adolf Hitler, then he secretly designed the first vw sports car during the war and released it after Germany's manufacturing infrastructure recovered after the war ended. He then changed the name to porsche. In the end porsche as always been owned by vw. Another good one is to tell lexus owners that a lexus is just a toyota in a tux.Seen a ton of them.
