Re: I lost my cool !

What about those stick on fuel cap decals which are supposed to make your car look high tech and go faster?

Fake air chrome outlets on the side of the fenders. And they come from the factory! YUCH!

There is a Mercury Mountaineer here in Killeen with 26 inch rims. It is from the late 90's and has the nice explorer 5.0. Probably it's only redeeming quality.

Lastly, I can not stand those stupid stick on fender vents! People are sticking these things all over the place on crap cars. Your vehicle is not an Escalade or Ford Super Duty! It is a beat to oblivion mid 90's saturn!
First off. Killeen is my hometown. Second. Anytime I see those side vents all I can think of are 50's Buicks.

Re: I lost my cool !

I can't stand those rubber band looking tires on oversize wheels either. I blame guys like Foose for much of that. They look ridiculous.

Remember whistlers on the intake manifold, fuzzy dice, blue dot tail lights, dogs with bobbing heads, fake zoomie pipes, and baby on board stickers.
Every generation will look back and question what used to be considered cool.

Re: I lost my cool !

I cant disagree with anything you guys have said yet, but i have some to add.
Tires that make colored smoke when your doing burnouts- I mean jeez, burnouts are one of the best things to do in a classic car, why try to screw it up.

Any car that has more power in their sound system than under the hood. anyone who straight pipes something like a 84 4 cyl. toyota pick-up Personally, i think some guys on here would back me up, i think tuner cars in generaly are just plain stupid. I would probably be put in the generation of tuner cars since im only 17, but the only car i thought was cool in the Fast and The Furious movie was the 70' charger. And i dont mean to be rude. I believe that anyone who works hard and has a passion for their car is alright in my book, so i guess what im trying to say is: if your driving around in a 1993 trecel and have wheels bigger than the ones on my F-350, your a wanabe car guy.

Re: I lost my cool !

OK OK I think I've got one that will take the prize... A year or so ago I saw an acura integra with a PVC roll bar in it, and if thats not enough the guy had spent good money on deist belts and yes you guessed it they were bolted onto the PVC roll bar! Now what is going to happen when he has a wreck?
