Isn't "Whip" one of those made-up words that people use in the ghetto? I thought I heard it used in talking about cars, but I can't think what real word it was replacing...

Something like: "My pimpin ride'* got tight whips, yo!"

Maybe it wasn't ghetto, but ricer-speak...

At any rate, I'd avoid them too, just based on that.

LOL Ok. So my sentence there was pretty bad grammar then.

I still fail to see why people can't just call a car a car. I'll freely admit that I'm biased against using words that don't exist in the English language (or do, but not defined as they are being used), especially when there is already a great word (car) that is both shorter, and more widely accepted than the new word. Calling Dayton rims "D'*" though, I can understand. Similar to calling a Chevrolet a Chevy.

Thanks for the lesson though. Now I feel all bi-lingual or something.

I agree with you, but do you know any reason why? I just don't think I trust the company, but I have no reason for it. Have you had experience with them?
