You know you own a F-Body When.
Someone posted this on fullthrottlev6..thought id bring it here because its so true.
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 or firebird 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. its funny becaus i think i did almost all of this v6 or v8 |

Sorry Tony but I'm not into the whole mullet. |
You know you drive a V8 camaro if the first thing you say when someone asks about your car is that "it has a Corvette engine in it" when you get mad when you see a dirty camaro. You know you drive a v8 camaro when any problem on the road (need to get over a lane, debris, bad driver, random animal) is answered with a downshift and WOT. When you hit a car 12 feet away with your door when you get out When people tell you that is the loudest Sebring they have ever heard." (Hahah @ 98+ers.) You think your car is feeling slow until you give someone a ride and they practically crap their pants. You spend $3500 on suspension and traction parts just to have everybody tell you to do a burnout. You cry more when your head gaskets blow then when you lost your gf. As much as you may hate fixing it, you always seem to wander around it and mumble about what you are gonna upgrade next. Moms pull their children closer in parking lots when you drive by. you have received more scratches and bloody knuckles from working on your engine than anything else in your life, combined. Your girlfriend/ wife knows to hold on/ brace her self when you are about to make a turn or an on ramp when you see another car, you immediately look at its exhaust and its tire width. ...you don't mind pulling up to a red light if your in the front, it's a chance to work on reaction time If a passenger closes the door by pushing on the window you give them a 10 minute rant on how that will lead to rattles and NEVER TO DO THAT AGAIN... a loud ricer will make you physically sick... when you look over there and your cell phone is gone cuz you put it in the console and its now under the seat if you get excited to see another camaro til your realize it has the cheap hubcaps and single exhaust... (Hahahaha, so true) More guys holler at you than girls do. When the lid on your center console flies into the back seat!! Hahahaha... I just love em ... haha not gonna lie, that was a lot more than a few. |
I definitly take the long way home during the summer. I live about four miles east of my work but during the summer I roll the window's down, take the ttops off, and end up driving 50 miles on the backroads.
|
Yeah.
Like WOT for 1/3 of the on-ramp, then gotta slow down. And scraping the exhaust while trying to pull up to the gas pump, and while trying to park in my Post Office parking lot. That's irritating. |
I'm guilty of all of that except the mullet thing.

I do that about 10 out of 12 months. I love having my windows down for some reason. |

Haha... I can get some at idle now. :D And i even got a ticket for this: 12) When you refuse to put on a front liscense plate cuz you gotta see that front bowtie or firebird After like 8 Warnings :p |
haha those are awesome
|
You know you drive an F-Body when... everytime you leave Mitchell airport that frantic "TOO FAST FOR CURVE" sign lights up as you accelerate into the loop. (this is in Milwaukee)
|
you know you drive an f body when every other driver wants to race you.
made that one right now. its so true. mercedez think that since they got kompressor or brabus on the bumper means they have torque. oh and my all time favorite: you know you drive an f body when you find metal in the oil and just smile, because you know that not only did you break it, you broke it well. |

thats great jsut about all of them are true but iv never had a mullet and never plan to lol
|
"When you got a job just to buy mods for your car."
thats me baby! |
dunno if they're listed but i thought of them...
when you can do a 10 ft burnout and end up 200 feet away without a rearend. when you can open your doors in a parking lot and hit a car 2 spaces over. when retards at car shows see your vette FRCs and go OMG it has a corvette engine. when turning the music up and putting the windows down solves all those annoying rattles. you installed your own headers.... yes you ran it open for a few seconds. |
ahaha the musc and rolling down the window is true, and when I get excited to see another F-BODY and its a v6...then im dissapointed...yup
