i got this from westcoastmontess on montecarloss.com
you know you are a G-Body owner when:
1) It takes you 4 hrs to change the spark plugs.
2) You have to worry about breaking your rear end with even stock power.
3) When you have to buy tires at least once every year
4) Driving on the on ramp to the highway means wide open throttle. Fun!
5) When you go under an overpass or through a tunnel you downshift into first and got full throttle because it sounds like an Indy car!!
6) When you're trying to sneak out of the house and you have to push your car about 2 1/2 blocks away just to turn your car so you're not heard at home....
7) You find yourself listening to the exhaust instead of the tunes
8) You can spot another gbody from a half mile by the daytime lights
9) When you take more pics of your car than anything else.
10) When you see someone you know... you drop it down into 1st, slowly roll by them, and tap the accelerator while looking at them like "yea... you know you're impressed"
11) When you cruise thru the mall parking lots just to see how many car alarms you can set off
12) When you refuse to put on a front license plate cuz you gotta see that front bowtie
13) When you meet total strangers with gbodies that have the same interest and act like old friends from high school.
14) When you are always looking for more traction
15) When old people shake their fist at you.
16) When old guys give you thumbs up
17) When you park at an angle in a driveway or take up 2 spots in a parking lot
18) When you secretly watch people in the parking lot as you start your car up... and you get a kick out of it when they turn to see what the hell that was
19) You completely disregard fuel economy and just drive for the hell of it!!
20) When you're waiting for your check to clear just so you can add another mod
21) When you tell people not to lean on your car
22) When you don’t mind people staring at your car
23) You drive pass an all glass building and just look at your cars reflection
24) When you take the long way to a store just so you can have as much driving time as possible
25) If someone says "strange", you don’t think about it being weird. You think rear ends
26. Your always trying to find out what that "tick" is
27. Instead of trying to beat the red-light, you hope it stops you so you can race from the dig
28. When a conversation starter becomes "So what have you done to her?"
29. when you are coming to a dip in the road too fast, your stomach twists, and you involuntarily pick up your feet cuz you know the exhaust is about to scrape.
30. When you drive by a hotel and rev your engine and few people look out the windows to see what it was.
31. When you have at least 5 auto parts stores on speed dial and you're on a first name basis with everyone at AutoZone.
32. You know you drive an G-body if you have a "fix it" list on a special piece of paper in the center console just do you don't forget everything that needs to be done.
33. You always open the passenger door for your girl, not to be a gentleman but to make sure she doesn’t crush the side bolster of the seat.
34. Every mechanic in the shop runs away when they see your car and hear the words "fuel pump".
36. You spend $$$ on parts and hours installing them to get more power. THEN spending $$$ and more time taking it all back off so you can have a factory stock car.
37. Your windshield cracks due to body flex while you are trying to jack up a front tire.
39. When you get in trouble by the wife or gf for not turning the car off fast enough when you got home, in the process waking everyone up.
40. Once you start your car you don't leave it, not because someone will steal it but because the parking brake doesn’t work.
41. You buy you own fender covers for you can and don’t let the mechanic use anything else, because theirs are dirty.
41. When you buy a house based on whether or not you can get your car in the driveway without cremating the ground effects.
