"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

I personally love them.

06 models will bring (or allready have brought) convertibles. Most of them redisigned to follow the Peugeot trend of the hardtop. Ford Ka's and Focus will come in. Opel's Tigra, Smart, Nissan's Micra... lot's of 'em. Just 2 years ago if you wanted a hardtop convertible you had to go with pricy ones like Mercedes. Now, you've got -20,000 convertibles.

Although, just by looking at them, you can't compare a nissan 350z with a micra convertible.

Fastfood-like cars, agree?
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

A Smart Car convertible? I'm imagining a motorized rickshaw.

Pontiac is making the G6 a hardtop convertible. It's the first four seat hardtop droptop in the USA, as far as I know.

A Micra hardtop convertible seems impossible. It doesn't even have a trunk. Where is the top gonna be stored, unless they go Geo Metro and give it a trunk just for the droptop version?

Anyways, convertibles are awesome. Every car should be a convertible.

I think it's a bad choice to make it 4 seats.. its ridiculous. No space at all.

Volkswagen concept C is another one. I'd like to point out to undesputable, and others, that the Micra has a moon roof when it's covered. Concept C too.

What I didn't like about the Micra one is the 4 seats... dumb. I'd rather have a bigger trunk, and more space.
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

You lucky Euro :mad:

Also the 350z Roadster looks terrible with the top up, down it looks hot. And this is coming from a 350z super fanboi fanatic.

I think there need to be more cars with t/targa tops. I love them on my Camaro. It's like 2/3rds of a convertable without the huge loss in structural rigidity.
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

Have you guys seen the new Ford Mustang convertables? They can't make enough of em right now and the plant that makes them is operating 24hrs a day! There is a 1yr wait if you order a GT convertible model (GT has a V8 engine) I am working for that Ford plant temporarily and see em everyday, they make me drool :)

I use to work at an exotic car rental shop out her in LV. We had a Lambo Murcielago spyder and a 360 spyder. I have to say the Lambo has go to be the hottest convertable on the planet...period. but few people can afford the 425K price tag behind it :eek:

My personal favorite convertable is the m3, classy but cool and my favorite overall car is the SRT 8 Charger.

sigh, won't be getting any new rides besides this used S10 I'm looking at to stow my Box 5 R1 in the back of.
