Default Ford rant

Ok now I dont like to do this but its been aggrivating me for quite awhile.

Ok I often visit the Australian Ford forums and I like too post there the only thing that gives me ****s more than anything is how many Hypocrites there is.

I mean I know by making this thread its no better than what they do but I just want to bring it to your attention.

Some of these guys are the biggest Hypocrites on the face of the earth they whinge and moan about how alot of us act like morons and how we bash Fords than they do the exact same **** on their site and make themselves out to be little angels that dont do anything wrong.

I have no problems with Ford fans its just these type of Ford fans that **** me.

Sorry for the rant.


*Waits for some Ford guy to link this thread over at AFF*

it wont take long before this thread is linked over to the site, i will also admint i look at that forum i dont post, just watch, it amazes me how they carry on over there, but hey, i guess that is what seperates the pro's from the amatures. anyways, hopefully that stuff dont happen here, we stamped that out ages ago.

I agree Garth. Theres hypocrits on both sides and most of the kids on there dont really know what they are talking about anyways. Im not really into Ford Bashing at all cos i dont have a problem with their vehicles, in fact, i dont know anyone who has a ford to bash! I like to see the replies when they do link it over, its farkin hilarious.

The thing that annoys me more than anything is how they carry on that Ford is like the imperial god of the Automotive industry and nothing else matters.

I think everyone can agree that if it wasnt for Holden. Ford would'nt be making so many good cars and same goes for Holden if it was'nt Ford, Holden would'nt be making so many good cars.

I seriously hate the Holden vs Ford ****, I wish Holden and Ford guys would put differences aside and concertrate on the main enemy. (The Ricers )

Exactly!! Ford are our rivals, not our enemies - except at Bathurst of course .

Ricers are our enemies . I saw a Charade the other day with a twin 3" exhaust tip. I wanted to stab the guy driving but I was in a company car.

Agreed.. I also see some of their signatures.. **** about hating Holdens and stuff..

They can do whatever they want on their forums though.. I'm happy as long as that kinda **** doesn't spread here..

Can someone please define a Ricer for me? If its the type of guy you're talkin about David, then fair enough ($5000 wheels on a crappy $1000 car etc).

But Im gonna go out on a limb here and say that I still respect a nicely and tastefully done up hot 4, high tech turbo even (shock horror!) a nice rotary.

Im a V8 Holden man thru & thru, but I appreciate ANY nice car (except maybe Fords tee hee - just jokes!)

Good on ya.. Those turbo's and things are beasts.. My mate's SS can't keep up with a lot of them..

But the ricers that people here hate? Hyundai Excels, Lancers, Corrolla's.. With a massive Milo tin exhaust that makes heaps of sound, covered in racing stickers and stereo stickers, huge arse wing, fake black carbon fibre bonnet, monster tacho, neons and other **** like that..

The only thing it has is a stock 1.8litre engine..

I reckon it's gay myself.. But if they wanna do it to their cars, they're more then welcome too..

I got no beef with a tuned 32, wrx or a nice 13b in a series 4, they are really fast cars dont get me wrong. You just cant dress mutton up as lamb.

Ive the flip side.

I get to test drive a lot of Fords for work. I live in the neighbourhood of a Commodore car club of very little respect in the motorsport community.

So one night I take home a XR8. Red. Nice ride.

The car was spat on at least three times. Not to mention the other hassles I had with these retards....

Needless to say I've moved out of the suburb.
