  • you know you drive an F-body when...

    Had to steal this off another forum, really old, but gave me a good laugh today...

    01-28-2007, 09:14 PM
    1) It takes you 8 hrs to change the spark plugs

    2) You have to worry about breaking your rear end with even stock power

    3) When you have to buy tires at least once every year

    4) Driving on the on ramp to the highway means wide open throttle..fun!

    5) When you go under an overpass or through a tunnel you downshift into first and got full throttle because it sounds like an indy car!!

    6) When you're trying to sneak out of the house and you have to push your car about 2 1/2 blocks away just to turn your car so you're not heard at home....

    7) You find yourself listening to the exhaust instead of the tunes

    8) You can spot another fbody or vette from a half mile by the daytime lights

    9) When you take more pics of your car than anything else.

    10) When you see someone you know... you drop it down into 1st, slowly roll by them, and tap the accelerator while lookin at them like "yea... you know you're impressed"

    11) When you cruise thru the mall parking lots just to see how many car alarms you can set off

    12) When you refuse to put on a front liscense plate cuz you gotta see that front bowtie

    13) When you meet total strangers with Fbodies that have the same interest and act like old friends from high school..

    14) Mullet is your hairstyle of choice

    15) When you are always looking for more traction

    16) When old people shake their fist at you.

    17) When old guys give you a thumbs up

    18) When you have to drive at an angle driving on to/up steep driveways and roads

    19) When you secretly watch people in the parking lot as you start your car up... and you get a kick out of it when they turn to see what the hell that was

    20) You completely disregard fuel economy and just drive for the hell of it!!

    21) When you're waiting for your check to clear just so you can add another mod

    22) When you tell people not to lean on your car

    23) When you dont mind people staring at your car

    24) You drive passt an all glass building and just look at your cars reflection

    25) When you take the long way to a store just so you can have as much driving time as possible

    26) If someone says "strange", you dont think about it being wierd. you think rear ends

    27. Your always trying to find out what that "tick" is

    29. Instead of trying to beat the redlight, you hope it stops you so you can race from the dig

    30. When a conversation starter becomes "So what have you done to her?"

    31. when you are coming to a dip in the road too fast, your stomach twists, and you involuntarily pick up your feet cuz you know the exhaust is about to scrape.

        Just about every one is true...

          32: New dash cracks are the rule, not the exception

          33: You cringe in a tight parking spot because you know your girlfriend is going to plant the overly long door into the other car,

          Corollary A: You tend to park closer to the left-hand side of a parking stall to allow your passenger the most room.

          Corollary B: Getting in and out of a car backwards has become normal

          34: You're surprised when people can get out of the back seats of a sedan without assistance.

          35: You can get anywhere, in any weather, in any car, and shake your head at people crawling overly slow through a tiny bit of snow in an AWD vehicle.

            36. Every time you leave a parking lot your front air dam bottoms out
            37. People don't realize that the little black lever on the back of the front seats needs to be pushed out to get out. No, you don't pull the reclining lever.

              38: When you have to wait for your car to warm up for 20 minutes for the defroster to do it's job.
              39: When you are blinded by anyone and everyone's headlights.

              A lot of the ones I have read so far are very true.

                      # 19 is the best. I do it every time I start my car...if I am in a busy lot, I'll sometimes secretly wait for someone to walk directly behind/beside the car and start it just so I can see them jump. Makes me smile every time.

                      The best I ever had was when I used to use the remote starter...I fired up the car on my way down the walkway of my house (didn't realize there was an old lady walking by)...she jumped, ran across the street and ducked behind my neighbours porch...I could see her peeking cautiously through the veranda bars as I walked to my car...As gutless as that is, I had to die laughing.
