Bank Teller Checks Out My '05 GT, Then Turns Nasty

I just smile and nod. When my gfs Dad asked what size the engine in my car was I said 4.6L He gave me a weird look so I said "281 cubic inches." Then he asks how many horses, "300" then he says "Wow that's more than my wife's 5.0" which is a 98 mustang GT with a 4.6

I didn't want to call him on it or offend him so I just smiled and nodded and let it go. The sad thing was when one of my gf's friend tried to tell me her truck, Dodge Dakota 4.7L V8 was fast I couldn't hold back. She said, well it has a V8 so it's fast... I said "15.8 at 89mph in the 1/4 mile is not fast." She got pissed. Couldn't hold it back. She didn't even know the size of her engine :-\

Boy, you've got a lot to learn about women. You let the father slide on his comment, but nailed the girlfriend. :rolleyes: :nono: :nono: :nono: You must want to stay single for the rest of your life. :D
 
I married a reformed Jersey girl but all her sisters are exactly like that woman. Thankfully mine spent her formative years in Colorado! I would have been wary of letting her get that close to your mustang, she could have either burnt a cigarrette hole in it or smeared white castle grease all over the car. So did you get her number?........ :D
 
I love the commerical where the guys are looking at a Mustang (it's either a 2003 or 2004) and talking about the 5 liter with turbocharger. The get distracted by high speed internet.
But, gee, can't they get the details of the Mustang right????

What do you expect from Hollywood? :D I was watching "XXX State of the Union" yesterday. You gotta love Holleywood. The new Shelby Cobra with the V10 will turn 10,000 rpms :stupid: And go 225 mph. :cheers: Faster than a speeding bullet train. :doh:

Well that bullet train was made to go 200 mph =]
 
"Then, as I left, she offered a parting sentiment. "You should've gotten the V6 Mustang model. It has much more modification potential. My son says so."

Fortunately, I have a more potentially modifiable v6.... whewh..

unfortuneately, I have the same escort radar. It keeps me from speeding in those Target parking lots. Funny thing is though, my radar also goes off full signal on the ka band whenever I am within 1/2 mile of the local sheriffs cruising... yeh, I should probly get the brand this womans son recommended...

oh well, I guess we meet em all out here in life...
 
:D My 20+ year old Escort was picking up parking lot "radar" way back when. You just have to learn to interpret what it's telling you. One thing I did learn about radar detectors is they're extremely good at telling you, "you just got a ticket" LOL. When the "man" is sitting in the dark with his finger on the button and you're the only vehicle in sight, and you're speeding, no matter HOW good a detector is, YOU'RE BUSTED!! Best way to avoid this, is to drive 5 mph over the limit and act ignorant. NEVER slow down when the detector goes off. And if it's daylight and you do see him, NEVER look at him. Just keep driving along "fat, dumb, and happy" :rlaugh:
