GEE, I'm starting to REALLY wish we were called the CLASSIC-CHARGER forum. Anyone remember that discussion? Anyone remember it was THE TOP name picked before DodgeCharger.com became available? Anyone remember that the sentiment around here by most (even those who like the '06 Creeder) was that this is a discussion forum for CLASSIC Chargers? Like the stupid car if you want, but this forum is really not about post '74 cars...NEVER was. Even late 70's and 80's tuff is RARELY mentioned or discussed. I've been here since the second month Dodge-Charger.com was started....I don't remember ANY talk of new cars at all...are we supposed to bend to the will of a few who think differently? I think it was 80% or better HERE that didn't even like the Creeder. Doesn't majority generally rule? Or are we supposed to get PC here all of a sudden and accept this too? Up until DCX PUKED out this friggin monstrosity we would only occasionally discuss a Viper (which BTW at least has balls and style and looks mean all at once). Are we now supposed to dedicate sections to PLASTIC side panels? EFI? 18" Bling wheels? Traction control? WTH is going on? You can like it if you so desire, but it doesn't belong here. There are plenty of forums for NEW cars and the '06 Creeder...THIS ISN'T ONE OF THEM. Anyone care to correct me on that? [/size]

 Bill, you and I are friends, just because they are driffrent, there is no reason to bad mouth them. It is a Mopar / Charger site.

I know you remember when last 426 got into about Black Night, and Mo Jo and I having at it over Charger Freak. There where some other's as you know as well. It was not fun, and hate to see that blind it's not normal so we hate it set in again.

Bill, I sure like to this this site excpet everone for what they have, not what we think they should have.

      Love to talk with you again, your old friend Ken

I can see that there are some here who are going to accept the '06 Creeder on this site, and I just don't have the energy to fight that battle. I'll give my digs and put my .02 ¢ in about how much I loathe it, and I'll never respect it no matter what anyone says, but if you guys want to change this site into a ricer site, go right ahead... :rotz:

Ken, I don't see how me hating the Creeder has anything to do with our friendship. I never thought of you as anything but a friend, we're going to have to agree to disagree on this one...I won't accept that German made POS...period. I'd rather it wasn't discussed here, but it's not my site.

I think the best thing all of those who don't like the car could do is ignore topics about it. I'm figuring that with about 70% of the regular posters missing in those topics, they will die really fast and others may get a hint. I joined this site to talk about Chargers...not wannabe's.

BTW: This site was never about 80's Chargers either...for whomever asked that question. "Dedicated to the classic...." That means anything over 25 yrs old. Talk to me about the Creeder in 2031 K? But by then, they will all be Pepsi cans guaranteed...

This from a guy that submits some posts and then takes 3-4 weeks off.   What the hell are you worried about Bill?   If YOU do not want to discuss the '06, then avoid the topics.

Life DOES get in the way...if you have one. I had no control over having no time. Are you saying that because I'm mostly gone for 3 weeks I lose my right to voice my opinion? If you want to go there - I've been around longer than you have.

Sheesh, can't believe I even justified your comment with a comment. :rotz:

Did you read my post RIGHT ABOVE your post? Hello, McFly...  :icon_smile_tongue:

I was posting mine when I got the message another post had been submitted.  I ignored the red test message as I had already decided on what I wanted to say.

I can see you have a life.  Do you wear a hat that says "5000 + posts" when you log on?  :icon_smile_big:

Voicing your opinion is one thing, suggesting guidelines as to who can post and what they can talk about is another.

It seems like you are upset over what topics are posted here, why would you care?  Ignore them if it upsets you.  Oh yeah, you said you were going to - good.

Personally I don't see where we have to be rude.

Yes this is MOSTLY a classic Charger site - but it is also a CAR site. So what if someone buys and 06' Charger - big deal. It is a nice car regardless of what they call it. Why can't people just say congradulations and wish the guy well on his new purhcase? Are people not allowed to go out and buy a new Charger? Must they buy a classic one? no.

Anyway - Dude - welcome to the site, enjoy yourself here and congrats on your ride.

Well, it seems he's already gone. Wonder why? I don't think that posting in the Daytona thread had anything at all to do with it...

I totally agree with your and many members' posts about being adult about all this, or at least act like adults and accept the guy not for what he owns and drives but for who he is, which we will probably never know since he left.

BUT

The way this is going, there's way too much discussion concerning the matter so that many members and friends are about to hit each other over the head.
I don't care that someone with an 06 comes here and talks about his ride, fine, I don't care so I may not read it and I move on but I have to admit I do NOT want to see every other post be about the 06, that's not what I'm here for and most will agree on that, I too voted for classic-charger.com, plenty other boards for new cars, this isn't it. We don't talk much about other classics so why this one? For the name??
As long as it's a few posts left and right, fine, go ahead, have fun but we will surely lose most members if this turns into a modern car site, let's face it, we don't give a damn about them now do we ?  :icon_smile_big:
That one pic Todd took of the 06 between old mopars? I'm sorry fellas but I can't accept that, at all, it doesn't belong there just as my 69 doesn't belong in a modern car show, simple as that.
But I really don't have a problem with owners coming here to chat, just don't try to bragg, it'll open op a can of...of...hell what was it again ?
As to being faithfull to ma mopar ? She died a long time ago, bury her, say a prayer if you feel the need to and move on, how the hell can you support Chrysler now after their attitude concerning the new whatever the hell it is ? According to Creed we ARE fossils aren't we? Trying to hang onto a past long gone?
Funny why they want classic chargers to be near the new one to 'pass the torch' then huh ? Remember all thiose email some of you got? And that disgrace Petty driving up in a 3rd gen? Charger fever my butt, money fever you mean .
I'll never like the new charger, Ii couldn't but I'm not about to go bashing their owners, just as long as they realise this site isn't about those specific cars.
Oh hell what do I care, I got the one I want.
Andy I'm swearing a lot today and I'm blaming you  ;D

Big Lebowski

  Wow, all i've heard for 5 days in the forest is the mosquitos, i should check in more often. Anyway as an official '06 hater myself, i would always welcome a new Charger fan, with no need to be mean about anything. Our view, 90% last time i checked, was that DCX could have done so much more with the good name Charger. Good luck anyway. Mountain life rules!

Well welcome to the site anyways.

As far as the whole topic of whether or not we are supposed to only talk about classic Chargers or include those after 74, or even the new one's? Well to me they are all Mopars and they are all chargers so let the discussions roll. I personally don't care for a lot of even the older chargers. However I love the Daytona's and 69 Charger 500's. Personally I don't care too much for 68's don't like the round marker lights on the side, love the round tail lights though. Hate the front grill on a 70 but love the door scoops. I also love the 93 Iroc R/T Daytona but don't care too much for the regular Daytona's from the early 90's.

ChargerBill, love your artwork, but your attitude......not so much.  But hey, that's the point here, I don't have to like it, and you don't have to like discussion about the new Charger. But this is a Charger site.  Until a much bigger percentage of the posts are about the '06, maybe we forget about McCarthyism and no, the commies are not coming. 

By the way, my bro just picked up this little baby.




HeavyFuel

Just dickin' with ya.   ;D



But he did just get that car.

bull

I could see having threads about a new Charger if they actually made one, but they didn't so why are we discussing it? Also, I wonder how many GM and Ford loyalists would be kissing those companies' collective butt like some members here are kissing DCX's if Ford and GM started making ugly four doors sedans with the name Camaro, Mustang or Corvette stamped on them? Some of you guys rolled over so easy it's pathetic. Accept mediocrity and that's exactly what you'll get from now on.

cudaken

 OK, here's what i hope for. ;D Meet someone on the site with the 6.2 Hemi, runs it in to a guard rail. Lets me have the 2006 Charger and the new Hemi goes into mine. ;D

Just kidding. Don't want to talk with them, don't answer there questions like most of us could anyway. When they get bored, they will go away. If they don't get bored, well we might conveter them to the old ways.

This site is where I go to get a way from the nasty stuff life brings. I don't want to see nasty stuff here as well. Troy saved this great site for fun, not bashing.

Bill, yes you are a friend, hope to sme day to meet you as well. Now that 67 440 you have ;D
