If I'm in the Carrera...I'm the prick on the inside...(but NOT ON THIS BOARD)...for some reason that gets a "free pass" here...hmmm.
If I'm on the Harley....I'm the prick "poser" riding it to impress someone...

Can you help me understand the difference fellows?

Don't really care...I'm just a bit surprised at the "double standards" that are applied to each air cooled machine.

I also prefer ancient outdated lever actions too...
And my ancient two-cycle 150 hp bass boat...
And my ancient stereo (still replicates the "wall of sound" pretty well though)...
And my ancient....

Actually I'm not surprised at all....it's PPOT .

One of these daze I'm gonna get me something new: A GET OFF MY LAWN sign...but I'm just not quite there yet...maybe I'll just go steal Sammys
That's the truth. My ex-wife and her husband both have HD's. They wear HD watches, belts, shoes, and I'm sure have HD sheets on their bed. At my daughter's graduation she saw me in the 997S and said.."You're a yuppie poser git". LOL...there are probably more people who stereotype Porsche owners as yuppie scum then HD owners as Hell's Angels wannabes.

"Ancient outdated lever-actions"...Now you're talking my language!
