Has anyone seen any Stingers in the wild?

[MerlintheMad]

You Assies see each other a lot by comparison. Why is that? Your ratio of Stingers to population is c. the same as the US. You're spread thin on the ground compared to the US; or is that illusory? All of your "outback" is denuded of human inhabitants, condensing your populated areas to small strips along the coasts. Maybe that is it: you are all funneling along in the inhabitable strips, which makes "avoiding" each other less likely.

AUSSIES. Sorry about that, all you all crazy Australian types. (And all adding a bracketed "u" did was result in an underline of the text from there forward: this forum's automatic editing tools are mysterious.)

Yep we're crazy USA is a close contender tho lol

 

[MerlintheMad]

And being ten times bigger population-wise, our being a "close contender" receives a boost. How much, though? I feel like I live in a land of crazy people. And I was born here. (Of course, to the rest of the country, Y00TAW is the quintessence of "crazy"; so my point of view might be a bit skewed.)

Well we got the Stinger earlier than most, yes there is only 25 million of us compared to the US, 5 million live is the greater Sydney area where I’m from & also as the Ford Falcon & Holden Commodore (both affordable large RWD cars) are no longer available/made in AU & we love RWD cars the only current options in the affordable price range is either Ford Mustang or Kia Stinger with the soon to be added Hyundai G70.

The Genesis name isn’t being used in Oz?

Yes, but it’s still a Hyundai, sorry to confuse. Just like Lexus is a Toyota, can’t help myself...lol

Of course, I know that. Just Honda doesn’t use the Acura name in many markets. Like Honda NSX, Acura NSX here. I wondered if Genesis was a global brand.

Guess you have a chain mail Michael Jackson glove too?

 

[Weareblondi]

want to see a picture of it?

 

[Weareblondi]

ta-daaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.

 

[MerlintheMad]

want to see a picture of it?

Yes, please. Chain mail and I are intimate comrades. Then there was that small link anti-shark suit of years ago; that made scuba diving even more cool looking. I would expect a chef knife wielder to have gloves made of that stuff.

 

[MerlintheMad]

ta-daaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.

Beat me by three minutes! Yes, that is the real deal. The entire shark suit is in the same gauge stainless. (My mail is a "shirt" in rivetted normal sized rings, a la Viking/Norman/Anglo-Saxon style.)

 

[Weareblondi]

yeeees!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! finally, someone i can fight alongside with.

I'm "retired". But I still have all my gear ...

 

[AV8R]

ta-daaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.

Yes i have a pair of socks made from the same stuff.....lol

Living in Oz, and going anywhere near the beach, socks made out of link mail is probably a good idea!

 

[eljay]

Wish I could get this back on topic by reporting a sighting, but no luck!

OK, @AV8R, time for your detour sign!
