 RW> LOL! Which goes to show us, you don't know what you're talking about.

Accusing the opponont of ignorance is your standard response when you run
out of things to say.

 RW> Your Wholwo creates more pollution than my Camaro.

I doubt that. I filled her up last Friday. That was the first time this
year. How much fossil fuel did you burn this year?

 RW> Can your Wholwo get 28mpg, and still produce 305 HP, without blowing

My Volvo is the metric version, it does not do miles or gallons. As for 305
HP, no, it does not do that either, I have no need for an overpowered fuel
hog like that. Its modest 51 kW provide me with all the speed and pulling
power that I Need.

 RW> I know it doesn't.

Shows that you dont know nothing.

 RW>>> I get the same use out of my Camaro.

 MvdV>> A Camaro with a tow hook? What a joke.

 RW> Well, I'd rather enjoy the car than pull a trailer,

IOW, no tow hook. Thought ao.

 RW> so If I need to pull something, I'll use my 1/2 ton pickup.

That's the beauty of the Volvo. I do not need multiple cars. I do not need
to pollute this planet even more by having to produce more cars. I just
need one.

 RW>>> However, it has enough power in reserve to blow 911s off the
 RW>>> road, no matter what their vintage is.

 MvdV>> I no longer have a need for "blowing anyone off the
road". Any
 MvdV>> "reserve power" would just be a waste of waste of potential

I would not do them a favour. Anyone overtaking me is sure to run into a
speed trap sooner or later. Or be arrested for reckless driving. Sooner
probably...

 MvdV>> Cluck, cluck, cluck.

 RW> Chicken. Cluck cluck cluck...

 MvdV>> Feel better now?

 RW> Chicken. Cluck cluck cluck...

 MvdV>>>> How long did you practise on that chicken act?

 RW>>> None required, it's a macro. I touch the magic button and,

 MvdV>> Sort of makes you feel at home doesn't it?

 RW> Chicken. Cluck cluck cluck...

 RW>>> Chicken... cluck, cluck, cluck.

 MvdV>> Keep on practising pushing that button. You almost got it right

 RW> Chicken. Cluck cluck cluck...

Keep on practising. You almost got it right this time. One of these days
you may make it into the GBOR.
