I figured it out! The f-bods werent selling because...

...half of the fathers, husbands, boyfriends, etc that went in to buy one, were threatened with a breakup from their significant other who would be riding in the most anti-passenger car ever! I only have to sit in that seat once in while but it is not fun at all. The new Camaro has to be practical for everyone, period.


Oh and advertising helps too.

Easy General, I believe we are due for another discussion on this topic of grave importance. We have not had a new thread started on this since last week.

Maybe I need to make a new screen name, so I can start a new post with a 1 post count that says,

"Anyone know when the new Camaro is coming out"

I took offense at first to your "easy General", but then realized that we were on the same page.

USHotRod, with all politeness form me, why don't you delete this post and either use the search button, or just start reading somewhere.

WOW! You must be in charge around here!

Relax man.

Its a valid point, my wife dislikes riding in my car at times as well, mostly because of the stupid "Cat" hump.....

Gotta admit, that passenger hump topic has been beaten to the ground... so to speak.

I don't think it's that bad, my girlfriend has an 85, and I'm on my second 97 F-body. The hump dosne't really bother me. Maybe I'm just used to it.

and with all politeness to you, get over yourself, and get a life. Seriously...

You can always tell the ones that were picked on in school. The second they can say something on the internet and no one will know who they are, they do. Who really cares if its been said before? I dont live on this site. I have other things going on. I've been here for a few years and the only reason my post count isnt higher is because of people like you. Anyways, like I said, get a life.

In all honesty I had to check to see if I made a mistake and was reading a thread from the Lounge.

Learn to be friendly. You post monitors pretty much make me sick. So people haven't used the search button. Maybe it's been said before and they just want to say it again... It's the internet. They have just as much a right to say whatever they want, as much as you do to make a complete ignorant fool of yourself. Be constructive next time and tell them, "Yes, we have debated this for a while. The general consensus is true. Try using the search feature, you will find plenty of threads like this."

Maturity really doesn't bloom with age.

Guys, guys, you take this too seriously. It's just a little bit of humour, we meant no offense. Just something to "electrify" the mood round here



But since we're on the subject, do you guys think that a top dog Z/28 should have a turbo? Honestly.

Leave the turbo to the owner/aftermarket. As much as I like forced induction, I'd rather see a naturally aspirated Z/28.

Re: I figured it out! The f-bods werent selling because...

Back on the passenger friendly thing, my wife hates the bump, and the fact that my seat is power and hers is not, i am riggin' up a passenger power setup but ran into trouble cuz of the hump but it'll get done soon enough.....n e ways i am too lazy to search for an old thread its just way easier to post on a new thread then to hit search and find an old one on the subject......btw 3 10" type r's almost kill you in the 4th gens, guess its cuz of the hatchback (plus had tops off).

Like all my other posts this one did not make sense and totally left people lookin so sorry
