Different strokes, I guess.

But Jalopnik, Autoblog, and some others, they seem to be a bunch of weenies. Pushing their personal agendas and trying to be cute.

Many of these "car" sites have horrible editing, mediocre writing and bad spelling.

Idiots , pure and simple . Most likely support not saying Pledge of Allegiance as well .

Cbrenthus · 04-25-2011, 12:01 PM

Well, other than a little sarcastic, I didn't find that article to be too bad. I liked the pics though!

St33lsinger · 04-25-2011, 12:01 PM

Some things are worth the paper thier written on...oh wait thier an internet thing...so what does that tell you.

RocDood14618 · 04-25-2011, 12:02 PM

At least they didn't find out about the Mexican engines and French Transmissions.

OOOPS...

Who cares where a car is built today...its the image...the idea....not the material.
Besides...the folks at Oshawa do a fine job.

There isn't anything made in the USA anymore. Apparently that hasn't reached Jalopnik's end of the internet yet.

Edit: Never mind, I see what you guys are talking about. It's too early here.

liquidsmoke · 04-25-2011, 04:35 PM

yeah, saw the same article and felt the same way.

at least the link posted by spymaster, the actual article isnt that bad, the head line is worse, but they included a bunch of nice pics of the car.

liquidsmoke · 04-25-2011, 04:39 PM

on a better note.

Is there any vids of the car being painted? In this day and age and if i were the one doing the task, no way i wouldn't record it.

Z28RockStar · 04-25-2011, 09:33 PM

It is amusing to me how many choose to open a footfull mouth online to air their political agenda chastising and denegrating the greatest heros, the U.S. Armed Forces. When ever I am in public though with all my service ribbons and military patches and memorabilia on my cut, no bitches walk up to counter my perspective I proudly display, to bad, I wish they would. Thank you to all U.S. Armed Forces members past, present and their families as well as our allies for what you sacrafice for the well being of me, mine and everyone!

FenwickHockey65 · 04-25-2011, 09:54 PM

Jalopnik is a sham of a media outlet. I'm not sure why the manufacturers maintain them in their press fleets.

FastEddie · 04-25-2011, 10:16 PM

Yeah all that stuff you guys said... That operation Joint drop joke captioning the close-up of the bomb drop part of the mural was funny.

fbodfather · 04-25-2011, 11:03 PM

The Jalopnik post only proves and highlights the ignorance of so many.

I commissioned Mickey Harris to airbrush that Camaro for the Autoshow circuit.

He asked me what I'd like.

I told him that I wanted a car that would HONOR all that have served in our military to gain FREEDOM for people the world over. The car is NOT about WAR - it is about FREEDOM.....and unfortunately FREEDOM is not FREE!

I think he hit it out of the ballpark -- and I've been priviledged to watch as tens of thousands witness the car firsthand. I watch the tears. I watch people as they look at Mickey's work in awe........and I've had thousands come up to me and thank me (.....no need to thank me - thank those who gave so much!!!).....for the tribute.

One Grandmother -- on September 11, 2010 -- and asked me if the car would be there the next day. The reason? She has 9 grandchildren and she felt that this was a history lesson that they needed to learn. (......perhaps some on Jalopnik need to learn history as well.....)

So - we live in a free country - and thus, people can spout off to their hearts' content.......and it's because of the men and women who have sacrificed so much THAT THEY HAVE THE PRIVILEGE OF TYPING WHATEVER THEY WANT TO WITHOUT WORRYING THAT THEY MAY DISAPPEAR INTO THE NIGHT AS IN MOST PLACES IN THIS WORLD!!!!

I prefer to ignore them (.....they are ignorant of facts.......) and prefer to concentrate on those who are moved by Mickey's majestic artwork.
