I don't post nearly as often as I should on this forum, but that's mostly because I still don't have a Z, so I try to glean as much information as I can from those who do/did own one. I also find the Mustang to be an appealing vehicle, so being able to pick up information on both platforms in one place is pretty sweet. M4A1's been on both sides of the Z/Mustang ownership fence, and he's also been very gracious and objective when discussing the pros/cons of each car over the years. I've been on here since '08 and have seen plenty of back-and-forths over this and similar topics, and ultimately, nobody wins. This thread is further proof of that.
Let's face it- some noob decided to serve up some sh!t and now premium members are sending it back and forth. Troll mission accomplished. Unknown- face it man, you got caught saying something was a fact with no empirical evidence to back up the claim. Whoops. It's cool, I used to do the same thing sometimes when I was backed into a corner. Just admit that it was a bad call borne of stubbornness, and move on. M4- You made your point about the Mustang, and it's too bad it's the same one you've had to make countless times. You know how it works, there'll always be folks who are hot for their car beyond reason, so as one of the resident OG's, make the point and move on. You've always struck me as having very solid, respectable character traits, and pounding on Unknown after he's clearly beaten isn't really in keeping with that is it? Magnanimous in victory, and all that.
Bottom line: What is it gonna take for all of us on this forum to figure out a way to discuss things meaningfully and respectfully, backing up statements with experience or legitimate data along the way?
