Re: wow...15k original mile turbo coupe Reply #31 – November 17, 2004, 12:46:35 PM Quote from: jkirchmanHey what about those new CVT transmissions. Huh? Huh?New? I had one from '91. Quote Selected
Re: wow...15k original mile turbo coupe Reply #32 – November 17, 2004, 08:18:46 PM CVT's are to much of a liabilty. Saturn isn't gonna have a cvt in the Vue after this year due to the silly ammount of warrenty they cause. And they will be taking a loss in profit for switching to the cheaper transmissions that get better mileage... Quote Selected
Re: wow...15k original mile turbo coupe Reply #33 – November 17, 2004, 08:43:29 PM My CVT never once gave me trouble, even after running it dry. (give me a break, it was my first car and I was a newbie teen) And that was with full time 4X4 and after having to get the engine rebuilt.CVT's aren't the best for high power, but they're not a liability. Ask any ski-doo dealer.Is it time for a new thread? :D Quote Selected
Re: wow...15k original mile turbo coupe Reply #34 – November 17, 2004, 10:03:31 PM Quote from: Bird351Was there a point to that?Yes. Do you know what the difference is between a subjective statement and an objective one?Quote from: oldravenI don't think he was arguing auto's as superior, just stating his prefference.First half, correct. I was not trying to support either one. Second half, I was not trying to state my preference. However, since you mentioned it, my preference of transmission type depends on the type of car.

Re: wow...15k original mile turbo coupe Reply #35 – November 17, 2004, 10:14:36 PM And MY point is, I don't freaking care about subjective and objective. When I ask something like "Was there a point to that?", it's mainly rhetorical, and generally a signal that I think you should drop it. Your tangent was pointless. I explained how, no matter what argument they make in favor of sticks, MY preference and MY desire for comfort will trump those arguments in MY situation.Coming back and actually answering what was asked rhetorically has done little outside of irritating me when I'm already physically tired and mentally spent. (see also the warning elsewhere in the forum about correcting my sleep schedule, which is just about finished.. but also the time when I'm most likely to snap and go postal)Now, I will come right out and say it: Please drop it. This serves no purpose. Quote Selected

This serves no purpose.For crying out loud, quit being so touchy. The smilies were there to show I was being light-hearted about it.The problem sometimes with a board is we can only rely on words and not body language, tone, etc to show how we intend it to come across.
