    wow, with attitude like that you should be lucky anyone texts you. I think most people ryhme of these group of letters and have no idea what they mean, or how it effects their ride. Thats why they are reading up here.

    and just to keep the nyms going here is one I use

    maybe, I never get them, to old...but I try and figure it our regardless. my kids tried once and I needed a decoder to read it.

    my last point being, to lighten up. try and learn them all. I have been bending wrenches for ever, and those little 'nyms' keep getting longer..

    without them we would spend forever writing them out, most mechanics do not type,,,well

    well, thats the funny thing with the written word, unless you know the author and/or have feel for what said author might have said, it is realy a subjective process.
    What you have written must be read and interpeted, without being the great Kreskin one can only go off of what we read.
    I am usually accused of being sarcastic,,,and mean...and as Dr Sydney said 'pull down your pants and slide on the ice' lighten up?

    hey now, dont be hating on the GT's. Simply add a supercharger to them and they are the same a GTP, and if you add a turbo to them, they are much faster than a GTP i may add lol. Plus, IMO, they are probably up there with the quickest FWD N/A cars list. So dont hate on them : )

    '06 and '07 GTs are supercharged, there were not GTPs (technically) for those years.
    In '08 you either got a GP sedan or GP GXP.

    I am just new to your forum and just spent about 1 hour and 30 minutes lurking and reading. I think I will frequent your forum from now on after going through some of your posts. I will definitely learn a lot from them.
