As usual, the gaygov has nothing but his usual ignorant insults when
confronted with civility.

Hmmm, sounds like this guy read a review on an early L98 with 4+3 and
has never actually seen the HUD's virtual image.

Maybe we better replace that European gearbox and clutch with somethng
from Detroit! I've never been fond of the clatter -- worse in some than
in others. Probably some QA problem at ZF! As Dad noted, the American-
made automatic moves the C6 car quite handily--and better than the
Tiptronic solutions from Europe!

Again, the gaygov is spanked and defeated by his own countrymen.

The lardass needs to get away from his rusted car hulk more often and
see what's happening in engleland.

We have been over this before but I guess those fat cells in your head
prevented any of the information from sinking in. Ford makes a GT and
Mach 1 with solid rear ends because these cars were designed for
quarter mile drag racing. The Mustang Cobra has independent
suspension for people who like to drive on the tight curves of rural
roads. Unlike Europeon trash cars, most of which reside in your junk
yard, we have a choice of the kind of muscle car or sports car we want
to buy depending on what we want to do with it.

Really? How many Ford Tarus sedans could you miss on the road if you
threw a rock outside that South Wales junk yard full of rusty
Mercedes. Do you stupid ****ing limey ******s have any domestic car
companies left in Blighty outside of Bentley and Rolls? But the real
question here is why do you even care Nicky? About the only thing on
wheels you could squeeze your fat ass into is an ox cart and at that
it would take a team of Budweiser Clydesdales to get it in motion.

That's probably your best move, Chief Petty Officer considering your
previous comments were, to be polite, "exaggerated claims".

Quoting CPO Jacobs: " After all the bombs are dropped and all the
missiles shot someone still has to go in and take possession with
boots on the ground. "

No one will bother to go in " with boots " Chief Petty Officer because
the whole place will be radiated. What would be the point?

As I suggested to you before, leave the details of global
strategic defense to the experts.
