The terrorists won-Dad is selling the Corvette...

And he bought a Prius.

He came by in his Corvette on a last dance road trip up Highway 1 and told me about his new car over lunch Sunday. I asked him if it had come with the Obama bumper sticker or the Clinton one. He said it had a Gore sticker.
I told him it was previously owned.

To go from a Corvette to a Prius, something inside has to die to allow that to happen, though. A little sad.

But if anyone is interested in making offers on a low mileage 97 C5 Auto Silver with red/black interior, it is available for less then $20,000. Holla.

Ultimate suck. He should go with the stick, don't they get like ~27 MPG on the freeway? If it makes him feel better, I know somebody who works at a Ford dealership that can get a stack of PZEV badges (I may put one on my boat). Every vehicle is a partial zero emissions vehicle - when turned off!

That's what we were thinking when you went from a clean 3800 SC Fiero to a PT Cruiser.

A guy at work just traded in a 96 LT4 Vette (~ 120K. Driven like a grandma car. Had only had one clutch and two sets of brake pads replaced) for a...

Civic.

I knew that he was looking to sell. I told him that I'd *at least* give him what they offered him in trade. He said "I'll let you know."
Of course, he did it over Christmas, when I was on vacation. "I came by, but you weren't here."

So what did they give him for this meticulously maintained LT4 vette (that he believed needed a tranny?)

$5K. :cussing:

Good luck to your dad, Stimp. Sorry that he's been indoctrinated by the OwlGores.

5K for an LT4 Vette!!!
Wow....

At least he didn't trade it in. He has it up for consignment. I'm hoping he sells it to my older brother, his 97 Camaro has seen better days.

Well, the 'Vette is gone. At least I don't have to worry about someone ripping him off on the deal, he donated the car to his church. So, What Would Jesus Drive? Well, he's got a nice C5 Vette.

what's a church going to do with a sports car?

What else? Pimp it like a motherfucker. Whoot whoot! Holy Ghost ride the whip!

Depending how crazy you get with a C5, I suppose it could be a religious experience.

I certainly know it can be a pretty sexual experience. But use lube, the exhaust isn't very forgiving.

Aawrong. You need to have sex with at least one other human being. Doesn't sound like you are too choosy right now. I say the time is right for you to fly the rainbow and hit some boi bars. We're all behind you on your coming out, be RFT's poster fag!
