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

Nick, no offense or anything since you sell new cars, but man I hate new cars. Let's add some more computers!

I'm going to stick with a throttle cable and shift linkage until I'm dead. I'll be 80 years old still driving my P5. haha.

I'd have to agree with the overcontrolled new cars. Its rediculous. That being said, electronic throttle bodies are not TH

Your afraid of change. It's okay. Quite frankly, I'm surprised you can browse the forums on that Apple IIe you're using. (lol2)
 
I don't mind the computerization of cars one bit. But I'm a software developer so it kinda works for me :)
 
Well I'm not tech savy at all. Like even in the least. I've been reading about my stand alone ECU for the past two days and my head is about to explode.

I'm probably the only person who remembers the episode of TopGear Jeremy was reviewing the new Disco, or whatever it's called, and he said he prefers the old school Defender when you pull the lever and hears a loud "CLUNK" and that's how you know it's in 4 wheel drive. I'm old. I prefer the clunk. haha
 
I don't mind the new cars, but there are a few features that really annoy me. I do prefer cars with less electronics, you're more connected to the car and actually are part of the driving experience.

I had a phone interview today for a part time, I'm moving on to a in person interview next week, hopefully I can get this job.

Also, I'm gonna be in Mashpee, MA next week for work. I'm meeting with Mahk (and maybe deadspace) for lunch.
 
Oh, that's right. Good thing I don't have any cool cars. I can just picture you drifting a Porsche down the back alleys in Cleveland. haha
 
Then when you hand the yuppy his keys back and he starts ranting that he could hear the tires a block away you can just mutter stuff in Spanish as you walk away. lulz.
 
whatever gave you guys that idea... (whistle)

they have different kinds of clients, restaurants, hospitals, hotels... who knows where I'd end up.
