The Ohio Random Thread... aka We Should Probably Be Working

[hat1018]

It's like a frat/sorority house, except it is Mazda! Yeah, this week there has been a lot of good news that has relieved a lot of stress. And yes, Justine needs a Mazda2 or a Mazda3

But it is looking like a Ford Fiesta is more affordable and practical

Is the Fiesta actually cheaper? The fuel mileage is most likely the same, right? As far as roominess neither is a wise choice imo. I would be debating between a Focus and a 3 (hatch or sedan). Honestly I like the looks of the Fords better. The front end looks more aggressive on the Fords, unlike the "hai there" smiles on the Mazdas

fine, if it's such a bother then I'll have to put a turbo on it. That'll quiet it down...

Lmao can you imagine this house with James and Justine living here? Mazda would have to give us a flag to hang up and declare a new state of Mazdonia like Peter Griffin.

C'mon man. I had a hard enough time trying to find places to put my s*** when you moved in. If anyone else tries, I have no choice but to move out.

Until you put a 3" exhaust on it...

No, no, I dig it man. Seriously if I didn't have a friggin awfulmatic trans I would fo sho have an aftermarket exhaust. Autos just sound like crap with exhaust mods imo.

Went to Cbus with some of my friends on Friday night and spend the night visiting one of our friends from high school. I didn't think much of it, he's not my favorite guy, but he's alright. So we get there, and he doesn't stop talking the entire time. His two topics of "knowledge" are Eric Clapton and cars, sort of. He's the kind that acts like he knows a lot about cars but doesn't have the first clue about anything, besides which exotic has a faster 0-60.

Somehow the topic got onto a 4 point harness, and I mentioned that my friend has one in his Miata. He's like "oh, yeah, that's not even a real car, blah blah, ferrari is teh shiz." I told him it wasn't an average Miata, it's turbo, etc, and he brushed it off as still a chick's car. I didn't press the situation by reminding him that it was a much more fun car than anything he ever has or likely ever will experience, and he blathered on about some 90k$ Merc that he'll never own. Then he promptly informed us that his Hyundai Tuscon is powered by a V4 and I just laughed. Later his friend told us that he had talked about plans to turbo it and I laughed harder.

It's almost more annoying now that I have real world experience with cars. I mean a few years ago I might have been arguing with him over which stupid exotic is faster, but who gives a crap. I did send the troll bait vid of the turbo Miata chasing down the Viper at Mid Ohio, though, lol. Sorry for the rant.
