Engineer with a sense of humor?? '05 GTO

[TealV6]

Ok.. some of you that know machinery, will see the problem with this picture and the humor.

Those that don't... well... the hazard switch is a safety button used on large machines to do emergency shut downs.

I just find this funny as hell... I want to know what the engineer was thinking when he said, "wow Bob, let's try out this kinda switch and see what the public thinks". [img]graemlins/rofl.gif[/img]

Dial up beware!

Broken stalk when tried.

GTO = CRAP

GM = CRAP

lmfao! It looks like the brake release on my father-in-law's '02 Peterbuilt semi tractor.

I'd expect to hear a gigantic "PWUSHHHHHHHHH" after pushing that.

You think silly, I think "Perfect button for THE NAAAWWWWWWWSSSSSSSS"
LOL [img]tongue.gif[/img]

I'd still drive one! They're getting the LS2 in 2005 I heard.

[OneManArmy]

sadly that ls2 is about the only thing it has going for it in my book.

wheres my new charger damnit?!

[Merlin]

is that really in the car or just a prank??

[Dan M]

It'd be ok if it weren't so big and didn't look like it came out of the "misc pieces" bin at KB Toys.

So where are all the giant useless guages?

[black98V6]

yeah I'd have to agree with James GM isn't exactly all about high quality in their cars but what gets me is how nice their trucks are. I have driven several trim levels of GM truck 99 to 04 and they all have really nice build quality, why can't they translate that to the cars?

on a side note alot of the auto journalist guys are wondering if Holden can maintain any sort of build quality, aparently they have a worse reputation than GM does.

[JusFlyinBy]

What? Thats for real? That is definitley an E-Stop switch, haha.

I thought we settled this many threads ago. It's the passenger ejection seat button. :rolleyes: [img]graemlins/stickpoke.gif[/img]

[Pathogen]

Umm ... wow ... I mean ...

That settles it, yes it can be considered "Rice" if it's from the factory.


(oh and haahahahahhahaahahahaah!)

[Silv6]

i'd love to have a GTO, the button would have to come off if i did buy one though

[ellik]

I hope thats some cruel photoshop prank.

[97rs]

you can tell thats photoshopped. you can see the button sticking out behind it.

[Rune]

Yeah, thats a photoshop. If you look really close, it doesn't have the right shading to have the "3d" look. Then, with the connection to the chrome piece, they make it look like one piece. If a truly skilled pser did it, it would have a shaded bottom, to make it look like the chrome piece goes into the red button.
