No. Tracks and a gun do not automatically make it a tank. And most actual tanks suck as artillery.

Oh, not really ....... an artillery piece is usually used as an indirect fire weapon while the gun on a tank is usually used as a direct file weapon .....


humfrz

It's 97.9 degrees F here at the moment ....... pretty darn warm for these parts, this time of year.

Which reminds me of this ol boy, down in Ft Irwin, CA (just south of death valley) in August, back in the late 60's, frying eggs on the back of an M-60 tank and selling egg sandwiches for $1.00 a piece.

Best damn egg sandwich I ever had .......

The secret is the chemicals leeching out of that tank's paint. Just like Mom used to make!

You war-mongering Canadians sure do love your weapons.

It's more about what league the car fit in to fairly compare them... the other guy just trying to pick a battle he knows he could win (in a straight/drag race).. one definition of a bully
I like how I could feel he was trying to pick a battle, but I just had to look at him and give him that look. LOL But he is my friend and I am driving an FR-S. Real friends do talk real shit to be honest. A bully though Idk, but picking a battle very true indeed.

Yeah they have a point put it this way are we talking about tanks or cars here!

Hi there, Squady!
How are you doing, old buddy?


I've had a whole bunch of Toyotas and Mercs, by the way. They were fine cars, all of them. Reliable, good handling for their respective model years. Rust buckets.
I miss my old '72 Toyota Crown MS65 most of all. I had some real good times with that hideous lump.
