    Protected people will never know or understand the intensity life can be lived at. To do that you must complettly and totally understand the meaning of the word "DUCK"

    A person can call their car whatever makes them happy, but in the truest sense of the word that isn't a hot rod, no more than an original Shelby Cobra is a hot rod. Hopped up sports car, yes, for sure. The term is overused. I've even heard little old ladies refer to their 6 cylinder Mustang as "My little hot rod."

    Bottom line, it doesn't hurt anyone to call it whatever you like.

    It is a question of perception--like term "obscenity." I can't define it, but I know it when I see it. And what is obscene to me may not be obscene to you.
