In the past month, i've seen threads about cupholders, electric trunk releases and now this...with arguments flowing from needing two rollbars to it's safer to have none to padding them enough to look like frost protection for outdoor water lines.

Christ almighty, i got 40 gallons of gas sloshing around behind my ass...it'll be over quickly if i get hit back there. The steering column will drive through to my heart even faster if i hit something in the front. Hell, the lucas switches will shoot from the dash and take out an eye. Look at the damn things...the front pusher fans will puree your hands, the pipes will burn your legs, the quickjacks leave scars on your shins and foreheads, every time i shift to second, my elbow hits the damn threaded bolt holding my battery, you get sun stroke driving these damn bare naked ladies in the summer, or frozen butt cracks in the cold rain.

But i digress...

Just get a flatbed trailer and tow it around to show folks...or, even better, just ride in it on the trailer and have the wife drive the tow truck. Then you can have that coffee in your cupholder, turn on the radio and ac, and pop that trunk lid for the bellman without getting out.

...but, that's just me. Y'all have the assolute right to make your cobra be what you want it to be.

spot on
