New Versus Old & Posers

I disagree about them new cars (Ricers) There is a lot of simple bolt on
Hp parts available to up the Hp in them cars. When there is nothing
better on TV I sometimes watch one of them tuner shows and have seen it.
Even Hp TV did a build up on an old Honda with just add on parts.
Unfortunately most of them Ricers are posers with a loud muffler, loud
stereo and every ugly wing and ground effect you can bolt on. I got one
of them guy's living down the street from me. All noise and show but no
go.

Women and kids into the hobby. My second love is ham radio we have the same 
discussion there all the time how do you attract them into the hobby. I have 
came to the conclusion you don't. This is not downgrading women in the least. I 
know women who are 10 times the mechanic I am and have cars that put mine to 
shame. I think for the most part women are just not into mechanical things. 
Just like most men are not into cooking, flower gardens and for the most part 
even what their houses look like. I know there are exceptions my father supported 
us by being a cook. He also taught me everything I know about cars. It is 
back to the way we were brought up and the way we brought up our kids. Will it 
change. It is changing every day. Will it every be equal not it in my life time 
but then I am an old man. As for as kids the ones I know are more interested 
in hydraulics and paint jobs then anything else. Most of this I think comes 
from the fact you can't do much engine work on these new cars so this is what 
they can do with it. When I was growing up it was a whole more important what was 
under the hood than what the car looked like. Of course with the old junks I 
had you spent most of the time under the hood just to keep it running. Can't 
do that anymore with the new cars. Just my thoughts.
