Define your idea of performance for me.

Because unless I've missed something in this thread.....your arguing for choosing the 300hp (or whatever power value we choose) V8 truck over the 300hp V6 ponycar.

How is that about 'more performance'?

Regardless of whether or not the insurance will be cheap, I would get used to the idea.

That has a little more to do with the fact that I really like Colorados, lol.

Something older??

Hmmm, lets see. Buy a good 4th gen V6 that will be reliable and quick or buy an older probably thrashed 1st, 2nd, 3rd, or early 4th gen and spend even more money on it repairing it, detailing it and getting it in as good a shape as my current 4th gen. Like I said in an earlier post, some people have other priorities in life than just cars. Not all of us can just pull a couple thousand out of our a$$'s. Easier said than done.

I like all pony cars, but I like Camaros alot more than Mustangs. As to that Mustang GT that pulls up next to me at a stoplight, WHO CARES! If I want to race, I take my car down to the local drag strip, not on the damn street. Especially where I live in tourist nation.

And a 300hp N/A V6 isnt a sleeper?

So you went from a "V6 Camaro isnt cool at all" to "actually, some V6 Camaros are cool"

Like Charlie said, you're not making much sense. Only thing you're doing is taking needless potshots at V6 owners and quite frankly its annoying as hell
