How could a trailer hitch not have been mentioned yet? That really looks stupid in my opinion.

I know right? The GS owners paid good money for exclusive rights to a few stuck on parts and a little bit of paint.




Yea, I think I have broken almost every rule. (including birdsh*t and rain)



Guess what else? Until recently it had the GS version of the J55 brakes and one spare set of wheels are black A-molds. I guess I have to sell them too if I don't wanna be a GS poser.


I love these threads. The OP got one part right in his first post. People have different tastes and like different things. Post pictures of a car and I promise that I can pick out something that I personally think looks like crap on 99.9% of them. Obviously the same is true in reverse since my car has broken at least a dozen of the "rules" listed here. I actually venture to say that there isn't another car here that has broken more of them.

I just realize that my opinion doesn't (and shouldn't) matter in regards to what somebody else likes. Hence I am not going to throw my opinion out there other than the sarcastic self damning answers I already gave.


Other than fat chicks... yea... no fat chicks on them. Whoever said that was dead on.

Here is the ultra rare 1986 "Cada-Vette" I spotted the other day. It has the optional 4.5 Liter V8, as the badge will tell you.

I apologize for my last post. I was wrong. Some things should never be done. This is one of them.

How else would you do a Home Depot run?


Usually, trailer is used for race tires. When I see a Vette, BMW, Miata, etc. with a hitch, I know that guy/gal actually tracks their car and knows how it should be driven.

I opted to spend $30,000.00 on a new F150 to haul stuff with instead of the $200.00 trailer hitch. I thought (at the time) it made more sense.

You spent $30,000 on a blue oval!
