Equal color Forum Rules amendment

Recently in the forums I've noticed a disturbing trend calling out certain color trucks to be somehow "superior" or "inferior" based solely on their color.

I'd like to propose an "Equal color amendment" to the forum rules to insure that every truck is treated with the due respect that it deserves regardless of it's color, age, mileage, or even place of birth.

Now to be clear. It's still completely permissible to discriminate against inferior trucks based on reasonable things such as but not limited to:

Gas engines!
Diesels made by other companies not to be named specifically
"Heavy duty" type trucks that are just Super Duty wannabes
Any truck who's parent company might have the initials "G" or "M" in the name.
Any truck company who's name rhymes with "Podge"


I hope these guidelines will band together our group and allow us all to be colorblind when it comes to our 6.7 Super Duty beasts.

Thank you for your time,

Bill

Well, technically all of the super duty trucks have the same place of birth.

LOL @ the not limited to section.

Good stuff. Additionally, we should also be allowed to discriminate against trucks whose brand names rhyme with "dam", and come with HUGE mirrors that look like moose antlers.

Wow, rules that makes me think about the song "a boy Named Sue!" when I think about my post about anything but green or silver (anything but Sue)....


I think I can live by these rules as long as it perminately bars any trucks that have butt trumpets for an exhaust!






Now admit it, that song is stuck in your head isn't it!
