I really gotta ask...

Ok so I have some questions and its concerning your guys signatures and I see this way more in the 2010+ section than the other sections... and it seems more people are copying the ones who started this "special" trend...

I want to know why people put these "hmmm mods" in their sig's...

1. Spoiler Delete , Why not just put "no spoiler" or nothing at all...

2. Stripe Delete , how about not putting that at all. People with stripes should add that they have em, why mention that you don't have stripes... ? I should

3. 6 Speed Manual / Automatic... Well that's just kinda special since everyone knows you car is a 6 speed if your 2011+ ... its not like you have an option for a 5 or 7 speed so why put that down like its some extra you paid for or something extra you did to your stang

So if anyone can explain this please by all means because ive been wondering this for the last few days now...

its all personal taste, why people get different colors or mod their cars. same reason why you put 3.7 V6 we all know that a 2011 plus v6 is a 3.7......

Spoiler Delete - Because some packages automatically come with a spoiler ( MCA, Pony Package, GT/CS) and since some people don't like them, they check the box that says "Spoiler Delete"

Stripe Delete - See above

6 Speed Manual / Automatic - So people don't keep asking "Did you order yours standard or automatic?"

I just reworked your sig.

2011 between a 4.0-6.0 GT coupe premium, some grey color, crazy brake stop package, brown inside, 6 gears that shift, metal-less roof, bad guys deterrent, shiny lights, optional gears.

I just have signatures turned off so I don't see any of it. Just a preference since i've been on other boards where people's signatures could take up a lot of real estate and were annoying.

If I want to know what kind of options a member has, i'll just click on his profile and then "About Me" where his sig will be showing

It's because these guys take pride in their ride.

Besides, what difference does it make to you?

lol wow lots of responses, didn't expect to see so many when i got home lol

It was just a question because half the things are just an obvious statement, like 2011 6 speed. and like he pointed out that for some reason i even did this, 3.7 V6... i truely dont even understand why i did it as well lol

i was hating, I'm not losing sleep, ive just been curious so i though i would ask why such things are put in the sigs,

P.S. i take much pride in my ride as well =)

I don't think there is a lot of thought that goes into it. I know a guy who is bugged by stuff like this and yet he includes:

1992 | Black | Mustang V8 | GT 5.0

in his signature. Gee you think you have to put V8 and GT and 5.0. If it's a 92 GT we can assume it's a V8 and a 5.0. Perhaps we are all from the DEPARTMENT OF REDUNDANCY DEPARTMENT! I know I am, I really really really am.
