That smitty thread was a classic. I remember telling Scott about it. I don't think he believed Smitty was that stupid until he read it himself. He was so convinced that he was right. hahahahah, I wish that thread was still around somewhere. It woulda ranked up there w/amir and his "turny clicky thing".

well, according to all their stats, the GTO was the better car (won almost every category), but the GT was a "must have"

My only problem with the SS is its now very dated...especially inside. After sitting the new 07 Tahoe, and then a 06 Tahoe, and then a SS....All the buttons and gauages and everything are just OLD and outdated looking...GM finally does an interior well, and the fuck it up for the rest of their line
Will have to wait to see what the trailblazer refresh brings.

There is a 3 row trailblazer available (or was?) but I don't think the SS has a 3rd row as an option.

the SS is very dated, to bad they didn't come out w/ one 4 years ago. I believe there is a third row in the standard TB. That said, it's really not that small, they have 3rd rows in explorer's now I think.

My lord, thats one big sentence you have there.
I would bet 99% of this ACURA forum would rather have his GTO than your TL with those ugly chrome rims.

A real class act, followed with your reply in his thread about photoshop help. Talk about someone following someone else around making comments.
How you became a mod I'll never know. because you are officially :ghey:

I have never seen a Mod act as immature as you have. Are you sure you really are 26 or are you off by a decade or so.
Even though it may be too late, take my advise and stop posting in these threads for a while and cool off.

I thought you were supposed to be somewhat knowledgeable about cars when being a moderator?
I'd put my pink slip down right now that your slow ass CL would be SMOKED to shit by his GTO.

probably about 10 minutes if that, you really think it took a lot of time to be able to show you that you are a tool? Nope, was very easy.
I love my GTO, thanks. It's really slow, and the interior isn't better then your CL-S or anything

IMO this Jeep is one of those supremely stupid vehicles, yes it is fast for an SUV but can't do ANY of the things that make an SUV a wise choice. It can't tow my boat or my track car, it can't go over a curb much less off road. The Jeep is a one trick pony and its only trick is hobbled by enormous weight. The Cayenne is just in a different class, it can tow, has excellent offroad ability with just a change of tires, has an extremely luxurious cockpit. Now for those with wallets that can't afford a Turbo S et al(or choose not to) the SRT8 might seem like a resonable choice but when you consider there are cars out there that have all the utility (outside 3,500 lbs of towin', but where ya gonna put the hitch?), are faster, handle better are more luxurious and return better fuel economy, the SRT8 simply becomes a lifestyle vehicle. I will admit many SUVs are bought just for this reason but I don't get it. For the price of an SRT8 and a little change I would much rather have a LR3 or even the SS for less, at least I don't have to worry about a speed bump in my freakin' SUV.
