Let's step back here a little bit. Did nicecar go off the looney bin? Hell yeah! Probably off a night of drinking (just kidding) and he may wake up to regret it. Nonetheless there's no excuse for that just as there's no excuse for PW to personally attack him for providing his opinion. It's quite possible, although not the norm, that nicecar spends $2k/year, while PW only spends $2k/decade. That too is not the norm. It all depends on how much/little/hard/soft you drive it. Everyone has unique opinions based on unique EXPERIENCES. That is PRECISELY what makes these forums a wealth of information, and we shouldn't push people form contributing. I'd like to learn about nicecar's experiences as well as PW's, so I can make my own decision.
The problem is that there are a handful on here who are too quick to personally attack someone whose opinions/experiences are different than their own. State your case without getting so personal about it, and let the readers decide.
So let's not go around calling someone full of sh it if we don't agree with them, or question their personal/professional/mechanical experience if their views on an engine noise don't line up with ours. We should all be able to throw in our 2 cents without being personally attacked. We can have discussions, and explain why our opinion is different without resulting to personal attacks.
It's a sad day when I have to be the voice of decency and reason!
