  1. I know. PC run amok. It's crazy. What will the Chicago Blackhawks now be called? The Chicago Native American Tribe That We Can't Mention?
  2. I guess you're right! And right on the rollbar, too.
  3. We live in a hyper-PC society today. "Outrage" is the preferred state of mind for way too many people. Look at the whole Washingron Redskins thing. The team was known as the Redskins since the '20s... and suddenly now it's offensive? I guess the Cleveland Indians need to change their name to the Cleveland Native Americans...
  4. ok, you win. The model is correct. I was wrong.
  5. So how does that affect the fact that the Chinese copy other auto makers' designs?
  6. The wheelie bars never touched the ground and the chute never opened.
  7. Won't be seeing him live anymore...
  8. You can spin it any way you want, but that doesn't change the fact that the Chinese haver copied western designs for years. You say they aren't doing it anymore? That doesn't mean they didn't do it in the past! You are entitled to your own opinion, but you're not entitled to your own facts.
  9. People only got offended after it became a Nazi symbol. Before that, it was just another innocuous symbol that didn't really stand for anything in particular that they knew of, and nobody took any particular notice.
  10. Just for show, maybe...?
  11. I did. Both street driven cars, neither had a chute.
  12. Yes, I caught that, too. Same reaction.
  13. If that car needed a chute, yeah... I'd be surprised. Big time.
  14. That's a tuff lookin' 'vette... but the wipers buried under body color? Not working for me.. and the roll bar hoop brace should extend towards the back, not the front.
  15. Nice model, but I don't think a car running that engine and an exhaust system with mufflers would need a drag chute...
  16. Really. How many of those can there still possibly be undiscovered?
  17. But remember... the car itself is a total "what if." Yeah, the wheels aren't "correct" for the series... but they're cool!
  18. I love that song.
  19. I just sent my daughter a heads up, too. It does seem to be a good deal if you're a pretty steady Kindle user.
  20. Not really. Just a little tip from a guy that doesn't work for Ford, has no relatives that work for Ford, and in fact doesn't even know anyone that currently works for Ford.
  21. What's keeping the decklid from closing? Could you sand down or modify whatever it is, to get the lid to close completely? It's a really well done model... if only you could figure out the problem out back. I'd also suggest a black wash on the rear vent slots. And BTW... I don't understand the unpainted taillight housings.
  22. Yes, I believe audio books are included.
  23. Try to get the 2014 model right now. Ford dealers have to get rid of them all too make room for the 2015s. No better time to get a good deal on a new 2014 than now.
