At the drive-thru, got behind a Ford F-150 pickup w/the toolbox in the bed... one bumper sticker on the box reads:
YES - this is my truck! NO - I won't help you move! ROFLMAO - the downside of driving a truck or van.... |
Reality: Honda Civic
Dream cars: original AC Cobra (green or blue with white racing stripe) and '72 Dodge Charger (black, with a very large engine) |
"Timing is everything"
If I had answered this thread 3 weeks ago, my reality vehicle would have been the trolley, complimented with my Specialized Crossroads mountain bike. I used to have the "Lesbianmobile", an Isuzu Amigo, that I sold when my roomie moved in. We drove her jeep everywhere for about 2 years. Now that she is in Baton Rouge so much, I just bought a used Toyota 4Runner, '96, with 4 cyl and a manual transmission. it is fun, but it is big for me. I still ride the trolley and my bike most places. OK, my dream vehicle! ANY motorcycle that can be safely operated by a 4'11" 101# woman. I can't touch the ground on any I have tried. I am just a passenger now, but I love riding motorcycles! Wickedly WW |
WW---Build yourself a"chopper"motorcycle!I am 5'10".My last 2
bikes;I built with a"Hardtail"rear.That is no rear shock absorbers and a special tail section;that goes right down to the axle.They were both Triumphs and they say that is rough on your back.I had the 5th disc up removed in 1970.The ride didn't bother it.I spoked a Harley rear rim and tire to the Triumph hub for traction(Built-up engine)and that makes for a soft enough ride.My knees were almost in front of my body.I also had an 8" extension on my front tubes.You wouldn't believe how low you sit.

My own personal car is a '94 Honda Civic with a stick shift oooh I love the power, that baby can fly... but what I would rather have is an Acura which as far as I can tell is a racier version of honda and I'm a bit of a speed demon.... my g/f and I share her Ford Winstar when we go outta town, it's the lesbian lugger.... one of my ex-es had a 2000 Trans Am that he raced 3 times a week and I could have an orgasm just sitting in the front seat.... mmm those were the days.... dumbass got rear-ended by an eighteen wheeler and totaled it.

WW---Advice from one who has worked and ridden many!DON'T
buy a used "chopper!"They might just be built to look good and usually have the "shit"ridden out of them.You;usually;are just buying someone elses headache.Only buy if you have someone very knowledgeable about motorcycles. Irish P.S.Someone built them for a reason and it;probably;wasn't to baby it! |
I drive the Wongmobile....aka 1998 neon sport :P
|
Irish, dear.
Could you repeat that first bit of advice to me in English? KISS! Confusedly, WW |
WW---If you seriously need advice on a bike;just contact me at:
[email protected] I am no expert;but;I have been riding, racing,&building custom motorcycles for over 42yrs.I started riding when I was 15 & am 58 today.(27th)I have been to the Triumph factory school and got an A in mechanics.I took an extra week and went to a class on advanced motorcycle mechanics.I got an A+ in that.I think that qualifies me to know a little bit about them.If you need any help just contact me.I don't have the contacts&connect- ions that I used to have.When I straightened out;I dropped them Irish |
Ressurecting this thread for this, could have gone on the Jokes thread...
Most people assume WWJD is for "What would Jesus do?" But the initials really stand for "What would Jesus drive?" One theory is that Jesus would tool around in an old Plymouth because "the Bible says God drove Adam and Eve out of the Garden of Eden in a Fury." But, in Psalm 83, the Almighty clearly owns a Pontiac and a Geo. The passage urges the Lord to "pursue your enemies with your Tempest and terrify them with your Storm." Perhaps God favors Dodge pickup trucks, because Moses' followers are warned not to go up a mountain "until the Ram's horn sounds a long blast." Some scholars insist that Jesus drove a Honda but didn't like to talk about it. As proof, they cite a verse in St. John's gospel where Christ tells the crowd, "For I did not speak of my own Accord..." Meanwhile, Moses rode an old British motorcycle, as evidenced by a Bible passage declaring that "the roar of Moses' Triumph is heard in the hills." Joshua drove a Triumph sports car with a hole in its muffler: "Joshua's Triumph was heard throughout the land." And, following the Master's lead, the Apostles car-pooled in a Honda ....."The Apostles were in one Accord." |
Scotz- That was frigging hilarious!!!!
Actual ride- Beat-up, rebuilt, rusted-out, '90 S-10 Dream ride- 86 Cutlass Supreme, 307, 350Turbo, silver with black racing stripes...a buddy actualy had this car in HS and I'd like to shoot him for selling it!..LOL |
99 Dodge neon
88 GMC Jimmy 93 Chevy Cavalier But we're still young! My husband allways has either the Jimmy or the Cavalier tore apart doing something new to them. As long as the neon stays running fine to get to the hospital when i'm in labor I don't mind! Boy couldn't you see me riding to the hospital in a half tore apart car...the hospital that we have to go to is 45 miles away! Military!:mad: :p |
I drive the typical mom van a 99 Windstar but one day I'll have my dream car(s)
I REALLY want a 69 Camaro SS but will 'settle' for a '68 also I would go for a '68 or '69 Firebird |
Vampeyes---I bought a '68 Firebird new.My best friend;in Conn.,
has a Father&Grandfather that own the Pontiac garage in my hometown.He was a salesman there;after High School.I special ordered it by part#;from the mechanics book.It was a "H.O."That was the designation for a high output eng.I got a great price on it and a loaner car until it came in.That was the important thing; because my wife was pregnant at the time.It's a good thing that I had it because;I took my wife;to the hospital;in the loan car at 11 PM. Irish |
LOL yeah I can't imagine wife would have been to happy lol ready to burst and no car..... Do you still have it (the car that is lol)? I have found in SD a shell (I don't know if thats the correct term but thats what some of my guy and car friendly women friends have called it- it's the body and frame no interior to speak of and no engine) of a '68 Firebird some farmer is just letting it sit around in his treeline ...(what a waste) he says he'll part with it for a couple hundred which is great only I gotta find someone to restore it for me lol (one that actually knows what the hell they are doing).
