Join the conversation with Boobie as we talk about sliding, muscle cars, and what makes a vehicle a muscle car. Muscle cars were the most coveted cars throughout the 2000s, but they were mainly popular in the 1980s. Cars such as the Chevrolet Camaro, Ford Mustang, and Dodge Challenger are in a category called muscle cars. "Muscle car" describes vehicles that emphasize speed, power, and acceleration. This can be contrasted with "drop-top," which describes vehicles that emphasize aesthetics like luxury and speed. Tune in!

It’s about understanding what you’re doing.  Everybody has a chance to be at the top of the mountain.  Nine-tenths of the driving game is the driver behind the wheel. Anybody has something opposite to say  When a hardtop becomes a drop-top, it is no longer considered a muscle car because muscle cars have never been dropped tops.

There are a few different ways to keep a car on the road. One way is to simply replace the whole vehicle with an updated model, but this can be expensive and time-consuming. Another option is to make incremental changes, which usually involves replacing parts of the car with better technology.
