Kind of funny looking at some of my old postings.
I was bored tonight and was checking out some of my old posts.
I purchased an 01 blue vert back over the summer. It had rear end problems and the dealer gave me back my $$. Found a great black 00 vert and have been loving it. Nice tight car. My 4th vette and the best yet. Anyway, I found this old post and an answer from some jerk. Bottom line is the car I test drove back when I made this post had some problems and I came looking for answers. Some Jerk felt the sloppy ride was from the tires. In hind sight an experience vette owner would know it was just from use and abuse. Here is what I wrote and the answer I got. What should have been offered was that the car should be fairly tight without skipping on regular road surfaces. and while fairly smooth will have some suspension travel. The guy took the opportunity to name call behind the guise of a google e-mail.

He got back by calling the OP a jerk and ass inexchange for being called an idiot. Sounds fair to me <g>. What maybe bothers me more is that he says he's owned 3 corvettes prior and apparently makes the argument that an experienced corvette owner would know the answer to his question but I guess he doesn't feel experienced enough 3 past vettes? BS story or not. Frankly I don't care either way. Just an observation when reading his post twice. |
