from what i have noticed, you ford guys also think you are 'all that' judging by the way you talk about your fords on here.

believe it or not, some holdens are actually quicker than fords. and some fords are also quicker than holdens. is it such a big deal? i cant believe how many of these threads turn into a 'my ford is better than that holden' story. i see as many idiots driving fords trying to race everyone as i do holdens and wrx's etc.

Good on ya taximan!

Natho - if you don't want to see Ford-biased talk, why would you bother registering for Ford Forums. LOL! It's not for Holden's or WRXs you know, although anyone can join and we do welcome all discussion! Just don't expect anyone to admit that any product is better than Ford! (Because they're not - faster is not always better). Oh yeh, welcome to the Ford nuthouse.

i registered because i am interested in all cars not just holdens or fords or wrx's or whatever. however just because i drive a vl now doesnt make me a wanker. you are probably right though, there are plenty if dickheads out there in holdens but i can honestly say i have seen just as many in fords.

Natho - You are right (sort of). I'm not a dickhead just because I used to drive a VS Berlina (there are plenty of other reasons) LOL.

Re: Drag

G'day

As far as I knew the traffic management unit of vicpol still have a current contract with holden? The only new traffic cars I've seen were a black unmarked VY SS and a marked VY SS.. No fords since I last saw an unmarked AU3 XR8, even they are rare as hens teeth.

Pretty unfortunate though that we don't see many ford traffic cars, but there's more general purpose ford police cars now which is good.
