Convertibles ok for guys?

Our church has no bells.
Having thought about this a little in a discussion last night, my take is that it is almost never ok for a guy to drive, much less own, a convertible. I'm willing to believe that there must be some model that is ok, that is, that doesn't make a guy look like a total cheesy dick with a comb-over and a medallion, gay, or both, but I haven't found one yet. The two closest to ok for me would be a Shelby Cobra (not a repli-car) or an old Mustang. Thoughts?

Is a Viper ok or is that too gay?

You should also add the 56-57 T-bird as convertibles cool for alpha males to drive.

In all my travels I have seen a few Vipers on the road and they were all driven by women. I saw one last week in TX. Now one of my customers owns one but he keeps the damn thing in a warehouse and never drives it.

I have to admit, once, without a great deal of cash, I purchased a new tracker. It's a little on the soft side compared to a jeep, but it did a great job.

So many times I took it off road, camping with my son, and we had a blast. The upgraded system blaring his favorite: "Bad to the Bone". Always have the top down.

You are a viper driving soccer player?
How did they let you on this board? :biggrin:

Read my post. I have probably seen at least a dozen vipers actually being driven in traffic. And yes in each case it was driven by a women. I am 6-4+ and 255. I sat in my customers Viper and while I fit I could not imagine having to drive it for any length of time.

Reality check. This is an internet board for fun and discussion. The serious stuff ends up on the political board. Only 38 more days until football season. Then we will have some things to really argue about.
