CPT Nervous
Grandmaster
There's been a lot of fatal car crashes here lately. I still get pretty nervous when I see someone driving a car.

As you should.
You'd be even more nervous if the national media harped on and on about the fatalities 24/7
Or constantly sensationalizing/demonized a specific type of car as being too inherently dangerous for people to be able to own legally. So then because of this 24/7 constant sensationalizing, every crazy person buys one of these cars to commit mass murders to get themselves on the news 24/7. Which makes the media say, see? This car is evil. No one should own them.
They did (still do?) - Don't you remember Rush Limbaugh's SUV reports?
I can play this game too. Do you have blinders on?! More people are murdered by those who CC than OC. More people are murdered in Chicago each weekend than the average "mass shooting." Get real people, that behavior is only asking for trouble in the present environment.
This is is so right however hopefully not too late. I was enjoying guns when the GCA68 was passed. Because of criminal activity and a society helping to prove they could not handle their freedoms we all had to pay the price. As a sportsman we enjoyed being able to go to any hardware store and buy guns and ammo even after 68. I have seen the eroding of our rights more and more as the impact of crime and gun mishandling has been brought to light. The camels nose is already in the tent and any antagonizing for no reason will bring the tent down quicker. Truth is.. I am glad to be an old fart as hopefully I will not live to see what future sportsmen will have to endure.
They would get ypu killed in the street.
I had a '72 gold Pinto station wagon with the fake wood grain on the side. That was my first car. I only paid $200 for it. Let's just say, if it weren't for my winning personality, I never would have had a date.
I agree.
The Democrats are Unsafe At Any Speed.
Hey I liked Pintos. They all seemed to disintegrate at the same time though.
My friends Pinto started to lose his brakes so after a while he just used the handbrake. Then the handbrake was starting to fail so he had to time all his stops way ahead. When he would come over, he would stop by riding the curb until it stopped but if a car was parked there, it would mess his timing all up and he would yell out the window that he'll make another pass until he finds a curb to grind. Sometimes you'd see him and a passenger open their doors and their feet would com out to stop.
He literally drove that car into the ground.
He also used to play "Helicopter" with it.
Gun it down a dirt road, crank the wheel and pull the handbrake. "Helicopter"
I used to be with Ford Division/Ford Motor Company. We had a dealer in Illinois who started advertising a "Free Fire Extinguisher With The Purchase Of Any New Pinto." I still have a copy of the newspaper ad someplace around here. Management was NOT amused.....
Had another friend that put a mustangs 302 motor and drivetrain into his Pinto.
But didn't do anything else.
That thing SCREAMED.
After a while the doors stopped working correctly... then the hood was kinda crocked and wouldn't open right.... back-side window blew out. Not to mention when you stomp on it, you could see the whole car flex from the torque and pitch in one direction while doing burn-outs.
He finally gutted it and welded braces and brackets to fix it all.
Was still a rolling death trap.... but FUN.
Hey...
What's this thread about anyway?
