There's a bunch of women doing mechanical work in aviation too. They can cuss with the best of us. It's pretty awesome.
Funny story... after a really smooth landing at LaGuardia, I watched numerous people in front of me congratulate the male co-pilot on a great landing. On boarding I noticed the pilot was the woman, so as I'm leaving I congratulate her instead of him. She was like, "Hey, someone noticed."

In regards to how I feel about women and cars....its more of an added bonus. Im not going to specifically going out just looking for a girl who knows alot about cars and such. But if I start talking about cars and she chimes in then hey bonus for me lol
Okey after reading all 7 pages I feel I can now post
I have been modding cars since before I could drive them (thanks Dad) and driving is the only way I know how to relax (well other than scuba diving or snowboarding).
I got my first tC in 2004 when there was still a couple month wait for them and it had to be registered with insurance as a Toyota Camry and I got pulled over so cops could ask what the heck it was. This week I take deliver of my THIRD tC, no none of them have been wrecked it's a long story but somehow I keep coming back to scions.
So I have proved I have had scions for awhile now and I tend to dump more and more and more and more money into them, heck I have what moves you tattooed on my foot I eat breathe and think cars. I woke up this morning and the first thing I did was jump out of bed walked to our computer room and started looking up car parts. I have over 100 tuner magazines laying around the house I have every single magazine that has had a tC on the cover. Obsessed? yes.
I met my boyfriend who I now live with in February at (dun dun dun) a car show that one of the friends we had in common told me I just HAD to go to even if it was all the way down in Portland because I HAD to meet his friend Erik, I found Erik on here and we started chatting online before we actually met. When I first walked in the room he wouldn't even LOOK at me. He now claims it's because he was intimidated or something of the sort which I am ok with and think is kinda cute. But on with the story...
The first few months of our relationship we spend going to a different meet and greet every Friday and a different car show every weekend. Because we are both fairly dominant in the scene out here and two (some say obnoxious) engaging people we have a bunch of friends in common and get along with the same crowd but I realize while we go to all of our scion events and have drawers full of scion shirts and misc. schwag that people don't talk to me, if I try to pipe in on a conversation Erik and some guy are having about my car I get nudged out. I am slowly becoming "Erik's girlfriend" which is the largest load of crap and bothers me more than anything. I have loved this scene for so long but just being some guys girlfriend because he happens to be in the same scene? Hey I installed my header, intake, did my own interior AND am doing his I have done darn near every mod on my car and helped him do others when he needed an extra set of hands but somehow I am still just "Erik's girlfriend" I pay for the freaking car and the stuff done to it and I should get some freaking credit I AM NOT one of those pretty girls that stands around posing with her boyfriends car at car shows I'm the one that spends hours detailing mine and thousands modding it.
Ok I guess I've been needing to get that out for awhile.
Ladies, gents, thank you for letting me vent.
I am now going to go see what kind of crazy ideas I can come up with for tC number 3.

That's what I thought
and oh 13edge if it was only so easy, as I'm sure any girl that shows her car or races her car will tell you it's hard to get out from under that oh she must be someones girlfriend or that must be her brothers car or she only got into cars because it's the only way guys would talk to her.
I got past all of that in the years I spent tunning FINALLY and here it is back to taunt me.
