That is one kick a$$ Panda you have there!!!
« on: May 21, 2014 - 02:28:37 PM »
Nope, doesn't sound near as good as "That is one kick a$$ Cuda you have there".

Plymouth Barracuda was planned to bear the name "Panda" (which was not popular with the car's designers), but after all "Barracuda", which John Samsen (a Chrysler designer) suggested, was chosen.

I did not realize the fate of the name could have been a bad turn out.   :22yikes:

I could see it now. I bet my Panda could gitty up faster than your pony.  :smilielol: :roflsmiley:

When they named it Panda, they knew it wouldn't last long and eventually become extinct.

Speaking of pandas, this panda goes into a bar, sits down and orders a sandwich.  He eats the sandwich, shoots the bartender and takes off.  Later, the police catch him and they ask him why he did it.  He says "I'm a panda, that's what we do, look me up in the dictionary."  So they get out a dictionary and they look up panda.  The dictionary says: "Panda bear. Comes from China. Eats shoots and leaves."
