How does that relate to this topic I'm guessing he means bigger isn't better when it comes to handling but let's face it, a 306 on 18" wheels is probably going to see more of McDonald's than anywhere else  ________________________________________ Less than 24 hours to go! |

f**k me I never knew that, I thought a ton was a tonne just that ton was the short lazy way to write it or an abbreviation.Jesus man I thought I would of known that by my age, my school must of been s**t, I even worked at a builders merchants for a few weeks filling up ton bulk bags of aggregate with a minidigger, he was a right conman cowboy tight w**ker he used to sell them as a metre bag so that he wouldnt get done off weights n measures for been under 1000kg, I used to brim them he hated it, the idiot would rather earn an extra £20 to £40 by selling an extra bag or 2 per arctic load that came in than have 20 happy regular customers that keep coming back knowing that there getting the right amount or slightly more, no wonder hes gone under, everyone that bought them bulk bags was left feeling ripped off, they could of just gone to quarry there selves and got it for half the price and know there not been done. ________________________________________ andrew315rawson@live.co.ukMoonstone phase 7 gti6 My Project thread: http://www.306gti6.com/forum/showthread.php?id=119992&page=1 |
