@laner, have you de facto taken over this thread from el mech?

Is it time to decide what’s beta and alpha again?

Post: #1227

Trying to bait El Mech back here.

Miss* that crazy fuck.

*was this beta?

Would you buy him an appetizer? That's the real question....

2011 Hyundai Elantra in pale goldish brown.

tbh already 98% sure what you're gonna say, but I thought this thread was funny.

What do you guys think of the Hyundai Kona?
Ignore the fact that the lawn mower somehow looks and moves like a car.


A quick look at the reviews show that many drivers like this car.

Is this car model with the name Kona alpha or beta or something else?

In Portugal this car is called Kauai. Why you ask? Because the original name sounds like "Cona" which is our informal, and extremely dirty, word for 'Vagina'.

So, like many things, can be alpha or beta, depending on the man.

2017 Porsche Macan with red leather interior.

2016 Ford Focus.



Women rarely see my whip though. They just see the cash and the dank ass hotel rooms I buy for us. I got my leather jacket and my trimmed goatee and some muscle on me. Never been a big fan of flaunting flashy status symbols. My dad has a Mercedes. It's totally a status thing. "WOAH look what he can afford!" By all means, I don't want to look like a bum (and I don't) but I'm more like Tyler Durden and less like Dan Blizeran.

So I think I’m between the Wrangler and the Tacoma TRD Off-Road. One that looks a lot like the TRD Pro:

http://claveyscorner.com/toyota/2017-tacoma-trd-pro/

Quote:What you see here is its little brother, the Tacoma TRD Pro, probably the most popular pick-up truck this side of 1985. As trucks try desperately to lean more towards a refined, car-like driving experience, like our beloved Honda Ridgeline, this Taco keeps one foot solidly planted in the past by remaining properly rugged, and being the spiritual successor to Marty McFly’s truck. If you’re looking for a bulletproof companion that will bring you anywhere, like, forever, this is the bro truck you need in your life.

They are selling new for about US$36,000.

I have a 2017 Tacoma SR5 and I love it. I test drove a TRD Pro and I was a big fan as well. Awesome handling truck and can handle anything you throw at it, TRD offroad features are a cool plus too.

I've been fortunate to consistently drive very nice cars in my life and believe it had very little to no impact on the women side of my life.

I think an old American/Australian muscle car would give the most street cred.

Post: #1239

Mine is very similar to this.

Post: #1240

^^That thing is bad ass.

I would have taken one of those over my suburban for sure. But they are rare, and in good shape, even rarer.

How would a new vortec conversion be in one of them? I hear vans are the worst vehicles in the world to do major repairs on.

Yeah Tacomas are a solid truck and have great resale value, despite some recalls. They can do most of what a Jeep can, aside from crazy extreme rock crawling, plus have a bed. They are also hard to find used of recent vintage for a price much less than new...so it may be worth just buying new.

Compared to a (used) Jeep, I’d be spending more on it.

But do women prefer guys with pickups?

Quote:Here’s the vehicle types women find most attractive among male drivers:

Pickup trucks: 32 percent.
Sports cars: 27 percent.
SUVs: 16 percent.
Sedans: 11 percent.
Hybrid or electric: 9 percent.
UPS truck: 4 percent.
Minivans: 2 percent.
Mail trucks: 1 percent.
For their part, the men queried said they’d be most likely to rev their biological engines for a woman who straps herself into a red BMW sports car.

That is the equivalent of an ‘alpha’ judgement passed down from on high.

You have replaced el mech

Do body on frame vehicles count as trucks? I know the Range Rover, G Wagon and Escalade get some hype from girls. My 4runner did well too.

Post: #1244

I think all of those would be counted as SUVs, albeit old-school truck-based SUVs.

I think the car only matters if you live in a 3rd world country, where an expensive car is considered a luxury, and elevates your status. Saying that, I drive an Audi A7 2015, and I've got good reactions from girls.

This isn't a discussion about women.
