Hey thanks! Great seeing another young Black man just like me. All I can say is keep at it. You’re needed. Or maybe you’ll end up in a gig like this thats just as rewarding.  Read more

These are definitely some good ideas. Especially the last 2. I could work with those. Thanks! Read more

Appreciate it. Especially from you. You’re one of my reliable readers from Oppo lol Read more

It’s gorgeous in person. But yea its. Its a GT for the Palm Springs/Florida retiree set. Read more

Oh yea looking bad it was a bad decision. Another car on my list is a current gen Mustang GT convertible. But being a proper Jalop/enthusiast my choices are all over. From a Miata RF to the Veloster N to an E Class.   Read more

Manual. But I have bad knees (combo playing high school football and Osgood-Schlatter disease). Combine that with Southern California stop and go traffic and its not good. So slushbox.. But for the right car I’d endure.  Read more

Thank you! And if I won the lottery tomorrow it would be a Teal Porsche 911 Turbo S. Read more

When my son was about 3, I attempted to buy a yellow Pontiac Solstice GXP to daily. My girl almost killed me for wanting to put a car seat in a two seat car. Suffice to say I ended up with a Chevy Sonic. Read more

Of course. Always have. My mom had a shit box when I was a kid. Well I think it was a shitbox. A ’74 Ford Gran Torino she bought for $200 bucks. Read more

Damn thats kind of hard. I’d say a Genesis G90, a Mustang GT500 and an Audi RS6 Avant.  Read more

I hope I can get one. Souther California’s performance car market is trash though. Like theres only 6 Veloster N’s for sale within 100 miles of me. I might have to buy out of state. Read more

Oh definitely. Shoot them my way. I would appreciate it. Read more

I hope so. One weird vice I have?

Another example from GM of a good idea at the wrong time. Had it come about 10-15 years later I think it may have worked. Read more

Not in particular. I enjoy the discourse and discussion. Getting people talking about things. Its what I always tried to do on Oppo. Thats why I go through and literally read every comment and see if I can respond to it. Read more
