What makes mopar guy different?

All these complaints about Mopar people, yet FABO is all Mopar people and some of the friendliest and helpful bunch of people around!

I attend both "open" shows and Mopar-only events. I've encountered the snobby type at all events. Perhaps they want to be valued or liked because they have a rare or expensive car. Maybe they are threatened that my little A-body or truck will steal some attention from their ride. Honestely, I don't care why they seem unhappy.

However, I have to say my experience has been overwhelming positive at car gatherings. I have met really nice people, time and time again. I never pretend to know more than I do, I ask questions and find people love to talk about their car/truck. I offer a lot of compliments and that starts a lot of friendly conversations.

I do prefer Mopar-only shows. As a dodge truck and A-body owner I know the challenge of finding parts. I think other Mopar owners appreciate the effort it takes to complete an old Mopar project. So many of the popular Ford and Chevy cars/trucks have parts readily available that the part acquisition process is simple.

Both my cars are powered by inline 6 engines. Even though the majority of classic car/truck owners are V8 guys, I feel welcomed most places I go. I'm sure some people judge me based on my car/truck and it's engine; that is fine with me. Some people feel compelled to criticize; that is fine too. BUT, these elite and judgemental people are in the vast minority. I think Mopar people and auto-enthusiasts in general are a friendly bunch. I really enjoy meeting you people!
