I was told I don't have a real Dart today!
I was at work today, a customer comes in a wants oil filters for a 2014 Dart. He's pissy because he can't get the filters from a parts store, that's just a damn shame, but no sweat, I got plenty.
He's starting to chat me up about his Dart and how much fun it is.
I tell him I have a Dart too."A 2.0l ?" "No.....I buy Coke in 2 liters!" "Oh yeah, a Tiger Shark?" "Nope a 318" "What?? How did you get a 318 in a Dart?" "Came that way." "A 2.4 Tiger Shark is the biggest they come." "They came a lot bigger than a 318, I can tell you that." " Never heard of that! When!" "My 318 is is 75, I got a Duster with a slanty too." "Oh, you got one of those old things, that's not a real Dart."
Now this is usually where I jump in and tell the guy I have a real Dart and he's driving a fat Fiat but, I just raped him for 4 oil filters that he had paid an pissy asshole penalty on. But while he was chatty, he had told me about a forum for Dart owners. I thought he was going to tell me about FABO, but he went on about another. I looked at it after he left the shop, it would seem he's not alone.
The question that are being asked are cracking me up! I couldn't take to much offense, these aren't car people,these are people who own cars. They're clueless.
 
Oh, so you've got one of those "wanna be" Darts eh? Maybe you should step up to the current century and procure a real Dart for yourself. Then you could be somebody. Lol
 
I guess it doesn't occur that since yours came "a long time ago" that it might be the grandfather of whatever he has
 
I would have told him after I had his money and he's walking out the door, enjoy your Fiat. :D
 
Actually, he's driving an Alfa Romeo, not a Fiat.
 
Tell him you'll be impressed if his Dart is still around in 50 years, because you didn't buy the disposable one.
Actually I guess it could have been worse.
He could have tried to use the Hemi in there somewhere.
 
us lettered 300 guys have the same trouble. that thing they sell now days is NOT a 300. dont have the space here. all so did you you know that a 1962 dart was NOT an "A" body, check it out. us old timers know more than you kids might think.
 
Not a real Dart!?
That statement is pretty ignorant and IMHO doesn't deserve a follow up response! lol

I have an even better one for that.

Tell them your style Darts have "Hemi's" and his style Darts have "Hymens".

"That's when the fight started". :)
 
I'm seriously cracked right up here..... LMAOROTFF.....You "don't" have a "real" Dodge Dart. So how the hell did HIS car get the name from? Stole it, you betcha! A real Dart, you could dump a Hemi in and go like hell.......... HIS so-called Dart, you can't FIT a Hemi in it! That it work anyway! The motor is the size of the freakin car, LMAO

Dumb asses, ya gotta laugh, or else it drive ya nuts! But these dumb asses you have to know when you keep your mouth shut and let 'em argue with themself! And just laugh at them as they're walking away.....
 
patiently waiting for the :new Dart is the best thing since sliced bread" crew to show up...

You just got me in trouble. I couldn't sleep, so I was just perusing the forums and read this. I laughed so much I woke up MommaCat. #-oThat's an accomplishment in itself. That woman could sleep through Armageddon.

Don't get me wrong Doug, I like the fact they brought the "name" back, BUT to put on the car they did. kills me that thing ain't no freakin' Dart, not by a long shot, I mean ****, the Challenger isn't a real Pony Car BUT it at least "looks" the part. What can they say about that on the "New" Dart. Here I was, when I heard of it, NOT yet seen it, was like COOL they're bringing the old cars back little did I know I'd get a hard slap in the face. Personally, I'd rather have that be from my Wife if not her some other decent looking girl from something I said not from some dumb *** car company to make me think something "nice" was going to be made again, with style and taste......

Greatest thing since sliced bread, LOL yer funny! LOL
 
i've owned both. they were both real too. '68 and a '13

dont have the '68 i sold that in 1990 (never should have)

but i love both of them. current project is a '74 duster

but anyhow go ahead smak talk and you are just like that guy mentioned in the first post
 
naw no hurt feelings. about the only thing bad about my 2013 dart is you cant fit a hemi in.

other than that i love it. runs good, handles great, not the fastest thing on the road but that lil turbo does great. it's orange like a pumpkin lol.
34.7mpg on the way in this morning.

had to drive a different car for a few days (mazda 6) and it handled like crap the steering sucked compared to the dart.

You might want to do a search on my user name at that "Dart" site. They don't like me much there. The mod was cool but the general members got real butt hurt when I showed them what a real Demon was. To each their own.

The "new Dart" is doing it's job. 34.7 mpg is good economy and that's what the Dart was all about back in the 60's. The economy and the name are all they have in common. tmm

I'm quite very well aware of it. :D
 
What Forum is it, do you know ?

Maybe all the "that's not a real Dart" owners on this site should register there.

Then post info and photos of our "that's not a real Dart" to show them all what "Real Darts" are all about.

I know I myself have owned my "that's not a real Dart" longer then most of them have probably
been alive.
