And the sad thing is, we discuss it on the various car forums; thus more folks read it to see what it is, and the platform gets more "clicks".
Would be better for all of us if we totally ignored these sales techniques. If we did , MAYBE they would go away. Jon

There is always the "don't feed the trolls" but by always talking about these links literally "feeds these links" and plays right into the palm of their hand. Remember, every time someone clicks on these links or refers to them on threads in forums it moves them closer to the top on a Google page, in turn, making them more money. My post along gives them another win. |

The 1973-77 Grand Prix are some of the best driving Pontiac ever. You can tell who ever written this list didn't know anything about Pontiacs in general. How can you say the 1984-87 Firebird were bad and not include the 82-83 model when they put a 2.5 4 cyl in them.

I really enjoyed his comments on the '74 Ventura GTO ... I paraphrase here but he claims they just threw on a fake hood scoop" when it was actually a "shaker style cold air system" with a vacuum (solenoid?) actuated scoop opening.

He had that wrong, for sure, but the 2003 GTO doesn't even exist....

Do you expect me to remember that after 60+ years, and something that is so irrelevant? Besides I never really got into it even as a kid.
