Norm,
You are reverting to standard behavior, and I am tired of it.
Your original statement was:
“Civi or military??? Could be both...
The WC12's used the identical cab as the 1939 civilian V,T and W trucks. One way to tell them from a WDX cab is the 2" vs. 6" valance at the bottom of the door. However the WDX can had a different firewall than the cab in the photo, that's a 2WD cab or early WC cab.....”
When someone corrected you the first time your post was:
“Dead wrong? Kevin you can't read, I said just the opposite.”
Then when you were corrected again you attacked the people who corrected you:
“Apparently neither one of you can read, I did mention the firewall and other differences, I do admit that it was written poorly, if you can admit that you read poorly, bottom line is that his question was answered correctly long before you felt compelled to answer, it is a civilian cab, now you can go back to chopping up trucks and stripping parts......that seems to be your most favorite past time, right after picking apart my posts.... which seems to give your existence some pleasure..”.
Now you were just being RUDE!!! Plus you were still wrong.
Then once I got into it with you denied that you were ever wrong, you claimed that I was nit picking:
“You know, besides being a pompous ass, you can't read very well, even after posting the same thing three times. My first post may have been poorly written but it was not wrong, just incomplete. The WC12's DID use the same cab as 1939 civilian trucks, with very minor detail changes, one of which is the 4WD firewall.” (this is a small part of your bashing of me, the whole text is repeated below)
So now I am a Pompous ass, I can't read, and yet your claim has changed.
Don't let your self righteousness fool you, your original post still was:
“The WC12's used the identical cab as the 1939 civilian V,T and W trucks.”
You DID NOT post, that there were "minor" changes, you said they were IDENTICAL. You never said that there was ANY difference between the WC12 and 39-47 2wd cabs.
Don't let the facts get in the way of your argument.
Later in that same post you wrote:
“It doesn't bother me to be wrong, (I wasn't in this case) what bothers me is that you get so much aparent glee from pointing out the mistakes or omissions of others and then gloating like an immature child, you could learn a lot from Paul Cook, he knows how to correct someone without the attitude.”
Again you claim you were right, should I repeat your original post again? You were WRONG, but you still can’t admit it. Then you make fun of me, and call me “an immature child”, for what, being right? Can you explain how having correct information makes me an immature child?
So far the only person who has called names is you, I take that as a sign you realize you were wrong, and don't have any facts to back up your side, so you attack me personally.
All I have done is repeat the fact that you are wrong on a small point of Dodge Truck trivia, I have NOT said bad things about you as a person like you have me. That is unless you count someone telling you that you are unable to admit that you are wrong is the same this as calling someone a Pompous ass, and belittling their unrelated behaviors at the same time. Everything I have written is a direct reply to things you wrote now, or in the past, I am not pulling unrelated stuff into this discussion like you are.
Next I got “You're not worth a reply Eric...you just don't get it....”. Wow, I am so far beneath you that I am not worth a reply? Thanks, I go from a “Pompous ass” to “not worth a reply”, which I take to have been intended to be worse. Once again you are bashing me, does this sort of behavior work well in your business transactions? Would you treat a subcontractor or even an honest competitor the way you have treated me?
I expect you to apologize to all the nice people on this forum for 1. Being wrong, and 2. Disparaging me for pointing out that you were wrong.
All you had to do in your second post was say, "whoops I misunderstood the question", or "Sorry I was wrong, I did not know those details". I make posts like that all the time when I make a mistake, why can't you?
I am pretty annoyed that you took what should have been a simple statement from you "whoops I misunderstood the question", and you turned it into bashing me as a person for pointing out your mistake.
Wow, the emperor does not have any clothes, huh Norm?
Learn to READ yourself, and answer questions you are SURE of the answer to. DO not BLAME other people for your inability to give out correct information, for whatever reason.
I for one am not going to stand by allow you to be as RUDE to me as you have been over this, I will happily call you out for being mean, rude, and WRONG.
Eric
Here is the whole text of the one shortened quote from above:
You know, besides being a pompous ass, you can't read very well, even after posting the same thing three times. My first post may have been poorly written but it was not wrong, just incomplete. The WC12's DID use the same cab as 1939 civilian trucks, with very minor detail changes, one of which is the 4WD firewall. You obviously have some inferiority complex that compels you to spend a great deal of time picking apart the minuscule and imaginary. It doesn't bother me to be wrong, (I wasn't in this case) what bothers me is that you get so much aparent glee from pointing out the mistakes or omissions of others and then gloating like an immature child, you could learn a lot from Paul Cook, he knows how to correct someone without the attitude. "ALL the posts between Kevin and I were explaining how that was NOT true, this was never about WC12 Vs WDX cabs, it was WC12 Vs 39-47 2wd cabs. "
I never said it was WC vs. WDX, Terry's question was about civilian vs. military, the answer is civilian, I just threw the WDX valance tid bit into the mix, sorry if I confused your anal little mind, but frankly it was my post and I will write about anything I damn well please, without fear of "what will Eric think?".
Apparently you are the only one who is perfect so I won't dig up just as many posts from you with this same crap over and over. The forum doesn't need to have a discussion over your ego trip aired in public like this, so I won't write anymore in public about it.
I'll make you a deal, you don't post to my threads and I won't post to yours. Besides, I'm not that interested in someone who spends their time traveling around the coutry gutting and ruining trucks so they can sell the parts on ebay...I admire how much you have learned over the past 6 years, but I don't admire how you apply it.
