Usage of the word "stock"

[btleier]

I think you need a hobby... you have too much time to think about what pisses you off

[STiSchucky]

tins teenie weenie is stock

[MisterCMK]

You're not the only one. I get pretty sick of hearing everyone claim their car is stock when it obviously isn't. Lame.

[dubbsy]

yeah, the head IS stock, the valvetrain is not.

sigh

stock camaro's have run 9's.

my car has the stock turbo, so i'm inclined to say it's mostly stock. also partly because it doesn't make enough power to be considered not stock.

eric gets easily offended by those makin fun of people with stock cars by tellin them their car is stock...but itsheavily modded. thus rubbing it in that it sucks bein stock, and those who are stock suck at life, which brings us back to eric and those peter pans known as clutch victory

ZING!

For a second I thought this thread was going to be about shares and investment portfolios..

I have exhaust, my motor is stock, does that count me as stock?

I only consider something not stock if it has stuff done to the motor..
but every1 has their own opinions of what is considered stock.

[JohnW]

i usually describe mine as 'pretty stock' or 'stockish'.

[weshole]

My engine is stock. My car however, is not.

[inspector01]

My car is stock too, i have no proble with that description.

[XJHEAD]

Is this OK, my car is almost stock

[MisterCMK]

I don't see why people don't just be honest about the mods they have to their car. I hate it when someone claims they are stock when they have a shit ton of mods done to their car.

[Guest]

ever notice the highly modded cars always say they are stock and the ricely modded cars always talk about their high performance mods.....

[Joel]

... thats probably because most people who have fast cars know their cars are fast and dont need to prove it to anyone... it's called modesty!

[integra_gsr98]

My car is stock.

[inspector01]

Ok now nick is abusing the word but i really don't consider my car having enough done to it to be considered heavily modded.....thus it is basically stock, with a few customizations of my own.

[HandoEX]

Stock ftw.

Sorry Erik, I had to.
