I'm a millennial and car forums the only "social media" I partake in. Think about that for a second. I had a FB account from 03-05 when it was a college thing. Yeah I'm an old millennial.

To paraphrase Obi Wan, you may never find a more wretched hive of asshattery. The "align your center caps with your valve stems" crowd is alive and well.
I couldn't agree more...Just yesterday I thought to myself, I need to get out of this group. To many clowns (A$$holes) and most of the misinformation is mind boggling!

And the poor guy that's 6'5"/300lbs wants to know (from others) if he'll comfortably fit in a 996, hell no! I'm 6'1"/200, no ass and couldn't imagine being much bigger in one of these...

Btw, I just outted you (5chn3ll) to the “align your center caps with your valve stems” crowd here. But super nice looking wheels for the whip!

I'm 6'2", 215#'s, got "some" ass besides being 69 years old and I get in, fit and get out easily. I don't know about 6'5" 300#'s though. The youngest kid(40) who is 6'5" and close to 300#'s got in, fit and drove it just fine. Of course his @300#'s are from lifting weights every other day and when I say "weights" I mean lots of "weights"!

I got one of those kids, but he's 6"7" and I had to open the sunroof to take him for a ride. Funniest damn thing I've seen.
