TheKurgan Posted May 18, 2012 Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 I am quite envious of the look of a KR myself. They are nice rides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheKurgan Posted May 18, 2012 Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 YEAH! How DARE them differ from your opinion!!! Sheesh, Phill It's not really an opinion. It's more tradition, but no one cares about that any more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
txcobra Posted May 18, 2012 Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 YEAH! How DARE them differ from your opinion!!! Sheesh, Phill Phil, I have to say, I find myself in agreement with far more of your posts than not, but it seems to me like you are speaking out more assertively to those folks about the right to an opinion in this thread only when their opinion happens to be that it lacked respect or was as I said "not cool". If you think everyone has the right to their own opinion (and I certainly agree with that), why would the opinions that it was not a good post count as well? For the OP, I am truly sorry about the financial difficulty and hope that you can sell the car for enough to help you out of this very tough situation, but it doesn't change the fact that the timing of the post felt disrespectful and not in the best taste...in my opinion anyway. I do wish you the best and hopefully a quick recovery from this. Phil, in the post where you stated, "you know everyone is thinking it", you certainly weren't speaking for me (and I'd say many others here). I was thinking about the man, his legend and what he has brought to the community and to me personally as an enthusiast....not about values of the things with his name on it. As TheKurgan said, I think it is a respectful tradition to leave that topic alone for awhile. To me, It would be like showing up at a friends funeral and asking what their estate is worth. I've shared my opinion and you've shared yours...no hard feelings I hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheKurgan Posted May 18, 2012 Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 If folks want to drive up the value of their cars, the best thing they can do is hold on to them. If KR's, SGT's, etc are always available on ebay, etc then of course the value is going to go down. Our best hope is to hold on to them and I guarantee that when people see them and know what they are, they will want to pay alot more money....because....they don't go up for sale all the time. They are special, and things that are special are not readily available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Beyond Posted May 19, 2012 Report Share Posted May 19, 2012 You can hash around all ya want about KRs, their current prices etc. but the fact remains that they are in the eyes of many the best looking Mustang of all time. I'm in that camp. +1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2010KonaBlueGT Posted May 19, 2012 Report Share Posted May 19, 2012 ...no hard feelings I hope. Absolutely no hard feelings! EVERYONE is entitled to their opinion, including you. I have more of a problem with *Counter* opinions rather than opinions. And I surely won't let this hyperbole we call the Internet create hard feelings.

Where were your pictures taken? Your sig says CA but I don't recognize that area. I see snow-capped mountains in the background but the road your car is on is higher than them. San Berdadino Mtn's? What's the place called....Wrightwood? Phill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phill Those were three different locations, all North of LA. The B&W (shot on Tri-X film) was taken in an almond orchard near Bakersfield, the one with snow was off highway N2, near the "old ridge route", and the one with flowers was taken near the Kern river. SoCal has so many nice canyons that many people don't know about... I'm always exploring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
