I've been working on my friend's Geo Metro and I actually appreciate the ease with which I can diagnose and fix this car. For those who don't like them, uh, THEY WERE BUILT AS ECONOMY CARS!!! GET OVER IT. Really, most people I know that have them didn't get them because they thought they were cool or sporty, they got them because they get 45+ MPG. I guess that's the difference between the people I know and the guys who think a four door Accord with a K&N and a 5 inch muffler tip is a race car. Oh, and I don't hate Japanese cars (I have a friend with a built Integra w/stroker crank, forged pistons, HP cams, hi-flow injectors, close ratio trans, etc... and I respect and appreciate the knowledge and work he put into his ride, cause it is sweet) I just hate the posers whose knowledge of cars doesn't go beyond generic Kragen bolt ons, but they have to flap their lips at those who are just trying to get by with what they have. Maybe if these guys ever displayed one ounce of actual knowledge (except how to spend their income on big stickers) I would listen to what they had to say, but until then...
