In my home state, Michigan, the guys with the hot cars were always ready to talk about their cars provided they were not stupid comments, also catching them without their bud's around helped.
If you showed couriosity and listened there was no problem. Rides were something else all together. It was because of the knowledge passed on I became a car nut, something I truly want to and enjoy passing on.
Currently I am passing it on to my son in law, he is eagar for the knowledge and never had the opportunity in his earlier years.
