Why is it that......????

Why is it that on Joe Dirt everyone seems to hate his daytona charger or superbird (whichever it was not very familiar with them)? And everyone seems to love his hemi car? lol I never got that, the P.O.S. daytona charger he drives in the beginning is worth 2 or 3 times what that hemi car is he gets in the end. And another thing about that movie that bugs me is the trans am that kid rock drives they say has a slant 6 in it..... thats a mopar motor lol and that was a trans am which trans am's are V8 cars. lol Theres just alot of movies you can watch and say WHAT A DUMB A$$!!! lol There is alot of talk about mopars in that movie... it's almost like the writer or director one, was a mopar fan but they just didn't happen to know jack F'ing **** about what the hell they were talkin about lmao.

Yeah thats like in Tommy Boy when david spade said that the car was a 440 six pack with a four speed and it was only a 4bbl automatic. i think they also called the satellite a roadrunner

As stupid as that movie was, I had fun watching it. Both Mopars looked good in their scenes to me. If you have not seen it, and you have 90 minutes or so to waste, I suggest giving it a watch.

What's worse is hearing someone say "oh it's like Joe Dirts crappy car" at a show.

LMAO Na doesnt really keep me up, I guess I'm just what they call an insomniac lol for some reason I want to sleep all damn day but when night comes around I'm more alert than a friggin owl. I don't care how early in the night I go to bed and succeed in going to sleep I still want to sleep the next day away and stay up all night. Something about daylight and myself just doesnt like each other lmao. But being up alone all night with not alot to think about but whatever comes across my mind.... lol this is the kind of stuff you end up with. Usually what keeps me awake is designing my car lol... well coming up with new ideas of what I can do to it. And here pretty soon hopefully this kind of **** will make me a living, just sold my jeep and as I've said before I love taking old beat to hell things and making them into something awesome, I'm gonna start doin that with cars, preferrably something already with a running gear and all it really needs is a paint job and a face lift on the interior. I guess kind of a chip foose thing, I just won't succeed in slottering the cars I do quite as badly... just something about alot of the cars he does bugs me... I think its cause he doesn't like chrome trim... both the challengers he did looked like hell after he finished them. When he takes that kind of stuff away from cars he takes away what makes them look like classics and gives them character and makes them look like some fiberglass new P.O.S. thing a corporation would come up with. I'm a resto-mod fan but theres a point too far if you ask me.

LOL I have heard the same thing... sadly actually out of my girlfriends mouth. And this was when I come across one on ebay a while back when the economy was way up that had bids over $300,000.00 I said hey babe come check this out, she come and looked and said the exact same thing " OH! It's like Joe Dirts crappy car!" then I scrolled up and showed her how much it was up to...... she says "HOLY ****" , lmao.... not quite Joe Dirts "crappy" car anymore is it?

Yeah you should check it out I think you would like it. You seem like the kind of guy that has about the same humor as I do. And when I first saw this movie it was my number one movie next to Dumb and Dumber.... you should really check that one out too. Not too many nice cars but it is a kick *** movie.

And I would love to have that car too Dead. I would leave it exactly as it is in that picture lol, I think it has way more character than a fully restored car.

yep i said it on here years ago that old Chrysler's are meant to be all go no show . just like the Matt black valiant / Chrysler gang that gets around over here . that parks in the shadows at the V8 hang outs . lopy idles / cammed up & ready to race & take on all comers . only thing is the poofter turbo loving cops that hate V8's & hooning . i know mines gonna be a cop magnet for sure . I'm gonna go & get Joe dirt tonight from the video shop & head over my dads just to watch it . 35 kms away (about 17 miles ) I'll get back on when i get back cya all .

I believe there is a way to do it through photobucket but I'm not sure there. But if you upload the pics onto your mopar forums profile, and then go in to look at them click on whichever pic your wanting to post get it into the full size mode and under the pic it should have something like HTML code: then under that it says BB Code: If you copy the BB code and put it into your message it should post the pic for you whenever you submit it. Should look something like this:



HTML Code:
blahblahxxllllwl;kjljklkjasldjkfoiojlwer;blahblah
BB Code:
blahblahxxlllllwl;kjsdfl;kjlkajsl;jkasl;dfjkl;sbla hblahblah

lol

If you are willing, PM me your address and I'll send you a copy that you and your mates can share. No self respecting vid store should have a damaged copy of Joe Dirt!!!
