Talking Hang in Tony

The Ford rep in my area told me that White was the best selling color on Ford pickups. They only stock RED for the less dicriminating or color blind customers.

But then again, don't believe everything you hear!!

If they are color blind then how do they know it's RED.

White trucks ROCK


See Below for futher clarification:













RED trucks RULE

Sounds like your Ford rep knows his trucks!

Everybody is entitled to their opinion but if some people would look at the facts there wouldn't be so many opinions floating around this chapter forum. So in conclusion................




























RED TRUCKS DO RULE!!!!

Just being RED, they are automaticly faster!!!! That is why some would think that they sell fewer RED trucks than others!!! Not everyone can be the fastest. LOL

OK, lets look at this from a technical point of view. The color red has more pigments in it than an equal amount of white hence red paint is heavier than white paint. There for a truck painted red wieghs more than an identical truck painted white making the power to wieght ratio of a red truck lower than that of a white truck!!!

Now I know why Duane sits up all night.

But Duane a white truck will reflect the sunlight more then a red truck so the red truck is absorbing the suns power instead of reflecting it. The reflection caused by the white paint will then cause the white truck to use more power to overcome the suns power where as the suns power is more readily absorbed by the red paint thus no loss of energy trying to overcome.

No Rollie, you got it all wrong. A red truck will absorb the sunlight witch in turn raises under hood temps. Higher temps mean poor fuel atomization and there for creates less power than a white truck that we all know is alot cooler hehe

Duane,
You forgot one important thing about RED trucks...the dreaded Flux Capacitor!
Red absorbs most all forms of energy in the universe, which in turn overlaod the Flux Capacitor, for a more scientific explanation read on......

In conjunction with a magnetic field and the load, the flux capacitor uses the hierarchical structure of the cosmos as a timer! The trilamination of the tiny spheres with selected metals and their subjection to a magnetic field and current (sustained by the load) destabilizes the orderliness of the proton, the heavier atom and the "tissue" of individual layers of metal. The matter then seeks to re-establish itself in the "fractal set."
The trilamination inserts a "curve" where there ought to be none, between the atomic structure and the next higher context of presence which is normally occupied by living things, beneath the solar niche and within the biospheric niche in a five to eleven dimensional collapsible schema of the universe accounting for all the phenomenon observed by scientists and others.

The nature of the timing is that which accounts for "pulsing", a "throbbing", in some other applications usually associated with creation of light produced in objects which allow angular also linear accelerations, stifled in the beebees. It is not known if there is a pulse associated with this particular flux capacitor.

The beebees occupy the next niche up from the atomic to accommodate the stresses in the atoms which is the twisting, softening or liquifaction of the nuclei of the heavy elements in the trilaminar *****, also the counterrotating trilaminar wheels of an application producing motion. As long as the device is "on", it occupies hyperspace and is an array of functions or an "object", a "thing", in itself.

That liquefaction (phase shift) of the nuclei disqualifies the atoms from their niche in the curvature of space: the Primary universe, this secondary universe containing the familiar galaxies, suns, and lesser bodies, (each a number of subsidiary radians within this secondary universe, itself a second radian out of vacuum; the biosphere, which is a third universe where we see the various phases of matter sharing their respective surfaces as well as changing places (solid, liquie, chemical, gaseous phases, and the "pinioning" atomic scale on the micro side of the human scale, where all flux capacitors are found, in the fourth level of universes, the fourth (pi-eth, we call it) space. The "Fourth Fractal"

Personally I further believe that the statement made above "softening or liquifaction of the nuclei of the heavy elements in the trilaminar *****" is more than enough proof that drivers of RED trucks dont have the "oysters" to hang with the rest of us.


I could go on, but this explanation should be more than clear to everyone that in a street race, Gray trucks will come in first followed by White trucks, then finally bringing up the rear would be all the Red trucks.


ok ok Im only JOKING!!!
