As you know, IDROVEAPICKUPTRUCK is on a cross-country, 10,000 mile roadtrip in his yellow FoST, and I got to meet and get food with him today! Of course, I had to snap a picture on my potato-tastic phone of these two together!

And to you, IDROVEAPICKUPTRUCK, happy trails and safe roads on your drive back home! enjoy! :)

I just realized these two car's 0-60 put together still doesn't equal mine.

Damn people with their hopped up econoboxes *shakes fist*

Nice when we hook up ... an Opponaut in Manhattan with a manual transmission would be good right about now ....

hopped up econobox? a jetta is not an econobox, I think you have me confused with a corolla XRS owner

If the starting price is around the $15k mark, it's an econobox. Sorry mate that's just my rule.

A Jetta is absolutely an economy car. Your interior isn't that fancy when a Kia is as nice.

Sorry, Nibby. Looks like I beat you to it 2 hours ago.

let me re-phrase that. A fully loaded Jetta is not an econobox. it's a decent midsizer. My mom moved from a 1.6L 16V Opel astra (4 speakers, 2 power windows, manual everything) to a 2011 2.5 SE jetta. from that perspective, the 2.5 was a luxury car! my GLI imporves on that a lot, with really good options etc...

A Jetta is totally an econobox

It's a fully loaded Econobox, but it's still an econobox.

I thought I did sorta reply. Petar was pretty proactive about things, asking when I was getting to Seattle many times. Also we had a built in meeting place because he just met me at the Discount Tire where I was getting snow tires. Sorry we didn't meet up, I didn't mean to offend.

Man, I used to love my old peugeot 205 GT. 0-60 in just under ten seconds.

Fuck me, that's slow nowadays. That was pretty much a focus ST in terms of performance then to the RS of the GTi!

Right, from an old car to a new car you're moving into a nicer cabin. But that's true of everything these days. Econobox is not what it used to mean.
