What is a Car Guy?

Wagoner claimed in Wilmington that he was a car guy. This is not anywhere near true as far as I can see. Looking for definitions as to exactly what makes one a "car guy". Maybe I'm missing something...

Re: What is a Car Guy?

Maybe owning an car, and happening to be a guy, perhaps both at the same time

Re: What is a Car Guy?

Here's the definition of a car guy:

A car guy cant look at his watch at 3:02, 3:50 or 4:06 and not think of a small block.

That is all.

Re: What is a Car Guy?

Now your doing attack threads on Rick Wagoner? At least at the shareholder's meeting the guy could defend himself.

Re: What is a Car Guy?

A car guy is an enthusiast of a unique car, quite possibly with the desire of modifying it in some way or another. Remember you don't have to own a cool car to be a car guy.

When I first met my wife, I never had any problem remembering her birthday (April 26) since my dad was a Mopar guy.

It's like the family guy... only not nearly entertaining.

Re: What is a Car Guy?

Is there a point to this thread besides a personal attack against someone you have some sort of agenda against?

Re: What is a Car Guy?

Nothing personal, just looking for definition. I have my own idea of what a car guy is, thought maybe I was missing something. Simple discussion, isn't that what this is all about?

This is clearly an attack against someone you want to see fail.

This thread is is very bad taste, and shows a total lack of professionalism.

Do yourself a favor and delete it.
