Only the chassis and drivetrain.

Why is it wog parents (mine for example) have no idea how to cut into a phone conversation? When they are talking to somebody, if I want them to pass on a message, they have no idea how to do it. I look at them and make hands signs indicating I'd like them to pass a message. Do you think they have any idea? Like "one moment, my son is trying to tell me something"? No! Conversely when the opposite occurs and I am talking to somebody on the phone, their attempts to pass a message involves yelling over the top of me in the hope the other person hears them! WTF! I can't have two conversations as once. Wait for me to tell the other person "hey can you wait a second, my mother or father want to say something". It is not rocket science.

Why is it...........when you buy something online, it's expected that a review should be part of the exchange. I'm happy to provide feedback here and there, but if I ignore (delete) a review request, I clearly don't want to leave a review and therefore don't want to receive multiple requests for me to do one. I paid my money, I received my item, END OF STORY!

And Autobarn, if you send me one more request, I will be leaving a review, but it won't be one you will be wanting!

Autobarn, oh Autobarn I don't want to review!
I pay you for the parts I want and then I say hooroo,
If you send me more requests, well this is what I'll do,
Print em out on A4 sheets and put em in the loo....

Why is it............ American's still like chrome wheels on modern cars.



Chrome wheels on modern day cars is the very definition of tacky!

[slowsnake]

Do they still make steel wheels there?
Am sure it's a weight thing though, so what do you suggest a powder coated colour?...
That car in pic definitely does not suit them wheels, even powder coated they are a very " uneasy on the eye " design.
What would you put on it?

Had an Ebay seller pester me to change the review from neutral to positive.The reason for neutral was because it wasn’t sent until 6 days after the order was made and paid.$9 parcel and they promised me a $2 refund if I changed my review.Got sick of the emails,so I changed it,BUT no $2.Now can’t go and change my review back to neutral,so who won there?

Chrome wheels seem to be offered by car companies for the American market. I can understand having chrome wheels on a hot rod or classic car, not on modern ones, they just look out of place and chintzy. I guess car companies still offer them because certain consumers are still requesting them.

I do notice those 19" wheels I posted above are no longer offered on the Ford US Build and Price section, they are now gloss black.
https://shop.ford.com/build/mustang/...KAA.GT.COU.%5D

These are the wheel options available to US buyers, thankfully not chrome -










And what wheels would I put on it.................





I also love the pewter coloured version too.........

And now Bunning's are hounding me.

Considering I waited 25 minutes to collect two small items, I don't think they really want my feedback.

Why is it that some dog owners do the responsible thing, pick up their dog's poo and dispose of it responsibly, some dog owners don't pick up the poo and other dog owners pick it up in a plastic bag but then drop it elsewhere?

Good choice, it certainly changed the look from as you say " chintzy " to something a bit more desirable

Cheers Billy.

Because they just do not care!
Do not give a damn!
They are reprobates!

Just like cat owners who let their moggys sheet in peoples garden during the night.

…There’s no consistency in bureaucracy around death.

Two weeks after the old fellow dies, I get a letter from the motor registry saying his mobility parking pass has been revoked and could we please return it ASAP.

OTOH Centrelink pays the carer’s allowance over fourteen weeks post-death as a normal arrangement. Juxtaposed with Robodebt it’s an interesting contrast.

Mine ****s in his own dunny thanks, I know cos I have to clean it up, being like all responsible like, put it in a plastic bag too, disinfected like, you know, a responsible cat owner, the one that keeps all the vermin at bay.

I like your choice of words "interesting contrast" not paradox or maybe conundrum!

Why is it that some folk hate cats so much, I don't hate dogs, I love dogs but I would never keep one unless it was on acreage, or I lived suburban and walked it for an hour everyday?

That's why I prefer a cat, and a tabby at that, I have yet to see a rottweiler or shepherd go behind a TV cabinet and catch a mouse, lol, they'd wreck the joint!

I think horses for courses, I like both but chose the cat, a rescue.

Why is it.....they can have a presenter on the TV lotto set, saying they can't broadcast lotto draw live on tv but it will be drawn under supervision off camera due to galloping Covid. Imagine close to the same amount of people involved in either exercise.

Allergies for a start.
Then its making a mess of shiny wheels on the car.
Dogs seem so loyal compared to the take it or leave it cat....where's my food? I'm hungry and need to walk all over the neighbours yard and vehicles.

i grew up with cats, dont hate them but would never own one, in the 10 years since moving out of 'home' i get hammered by itchy eyes with cats.

this is why i prefer small dogs, i have a sausage dog and a jrt x kelpie. they are nicer than cats, can walk them and they care that you exist.

[Tonz]

love cats....cant eat a whole one groan.

prefer pussy though

I think its just the english language, kind of how people who lack wisdom can still have wisdom teeth.

I don’t feed either of the buggers.
Dogs are weak and needy whereas cats are strong and independent.
Cats will take your food offerings but are perfectly capable of getting their own.

Only people who don't understand cats would make such a statement. My cat spends large parts of the day with or near me. Often I can't go to the toilet without it wanting to follow me inside.
