I doubt that.  You going one week without bashing GL would be like Skip going without telling a joke or a single prank for the same period.

CDR, Does the globe that members from the south use not have east & west.   It seems like everything turns into a north & south fight.  Glad I'm from the west aka the neutral zone....    

Actually Skip, it does. We just refer to ALL who don't live in the south as "Yankees".

Whether you make a "lateral" move and go out west(Where coincidently, most all southerners I know think are crazy and will end up in the ocean sooner or later), or stay up North, it's the way you act towards the Southerners defines whther or not your a "Damn Yankee".

You don't need to crush a GL, eventually some jackass will try and jump it and they compacted from the bottom up that way.  It's more like death by natural selection.

And I didn't see you or any other member here offering to buy the Charger that was offered up for sale,about to be jumped. Gotta let go of that hate man. It ain't healthy.

If that's the one I think it is, they was selling that car after it was to be jumped.  They just listed it before they jumped it.

Yes, you clearly have me all figured out and have been following my every post from week to week.  ::)

So now is it an "Arguement"? Or is it still a "Discussion" with taunts thrown in disguised as "Humor"?

Dude, I just cannot for the life of me figure out when you are joking and when you are provoking.

We all know a GL is Hemi Orange. Its an Orange with a redish tinge to it. If anyone disagrees with that, get your bloody eyes checked cause you are clearly colour blind.



And I ask for your PROOF.

If you are colour blind, it aint my problem to prove it. Just open your eyes and its proven.


Yet, Again, Proof, or it's just another unsubstantiated opinion. And I took 4 years of Art studies. I know my primary colors and the spectrum charts, so that kinda rules out the "Color Blind" thing. All I ask for is your proof of said Hemi orange color that was applied to the GL. If you cannot provide proof, all of your statements about color are just specualtion and nothing more.

Since you did 4 years of art class and know your colour spectrum then you know the orangy/red colour i mentioned is correct.  :Twocents:

Ghoste, you hate GL but GL is a 69 Charger. GL isnt a car, its a paint job. The Car is a 69 Charger. So you cant hate the car and yet same time like the car. You can hate the paint only. Far as I remember however, NASCARS all had numbers on the doors, do you hate them to then since the paints pretty much the same (besides the flag)?

Because when they paint it all up like a clown car that way it looks stupîd therefore I hate it.  It no longer represents a proud automotive model known as Charger it becomes a goofy sham and an icon for a stereotype culture that should stay in the backwoods where it belongs.  I pretty much hate NASCAR too but it isn`t the numbers on the doors so much (though you guessed correctly, I hate that too) as it is the weekly drama its become.  Its like the WWF of motorsports and Im pretty sure the races are all fixed.

Whoa there pumpkin.   Are you saying that the WWF isn't real?     :shruggy:

That's what I've been saying all along and I'm saying it again even though I was told to butt out by a loved one.  :nana:

If I understand Ghoste, I think a lot of Charger fan's problem with the GL lover is that they love the GL, not the Charger. If the GL had been a Buick Skylark, GL owners would be on a Buick site debating what color the car was really painted and have a Buick Skylark. I can tell you that, yes, most of the population knows the General Lee, but they don't know what a Charger is. You could paint a Coronet up like the GL and get the same reaction you get with a '69 Charger painted as the GL. People are not reacting to how cool the "car" is, put how cool the "character" is.

Nine pages and still going!  Definitely needs to change directions, the whole GL thing is gettin old.

Let's change the subject.  Why do you think 69 Chargers are superior all other years? :nana:

That doesnt work. Ive seen pcitures of Clowns painting everything and anything with 01 on the doors and a flag on the roof, even a V-Dub beatle. It most definitely is the fact its a Charger.

To me Id have the GL without the Flag. Just Orange Charger with 01 on doors to have a racey theme to it. To me that looks fine. The whole crap that goes along with some fanatics about GL's and all that other garbage that goes along, yeah, I hate that, not the car though. Its still a very nice car.

At least it's not repeating itself quite like the volt thread yet. If it does get locked someone will surely start another one 2 days later, this will continue till summer rolls around again.  :slap:

So your telling me that GL owners have a GL because it is a Charger? I doubt that. I would say that they have a Charger because it was the GL. I grew up watching the GL and wanted a GL. I would have bought whatever car the series had used because I wanted a GL. The mere fact that it was a Charger was a side benefit.
