Maybe hauss prefers the cleaner look of no fans.

We can now safely assume that any motorhome purchased by hauss will not have exposed pusher fans.

Personally, I love and prefer the original dual fans look on a 427 replica.

You know my pushers are not running normally, even when the puller fan is on. So, I've often wondered if the air pressure on the fans, while moving, was sufficient to "spin them" as I was driving, so as to make them appear to be on. But, each time I stop the car, unbuckle the belts, and quickly run around to look at them, they've stopped -- so I don't really know. Kind of like that time I stayed up all night to see if I snored....

Now here's a famous original we all know and love with dual pusher fans.

People used to say that I was so fast that I could turn off the bedroom light and and be in bed before the light went out.

Tripod lights go well with pusher fans. hauss, that's another "small item," of which there are a zillion, that you might like, or you might not, but you at least need to be aware of them.

What’s more hilarious is these replicas are low mileage garage queens or towed to car shows🤣. Why install fans when cars are just parked for show.

For $65,000 price point, send emails to cobra replica dealers. Let them know what you want and how much you wanna pay. They’ll run like monkeys for your business and money ‘ cause it’s a buyer’s market.

Owns (or leases) a Nissan Leaf (fugly) and takes the Subway. Nuff said.

BTW, how were those David Bowie murals? Do you like art? Do you insult the art lovers for not being to drive their paintings around the streets and freeways? See if you can find the analogy in there somewhere.

You must be pretty angry after sitting thru Harry Potter for 5 1/2 hours. Did your mom buy you a new wand and broomstick for your collection during intermission?

Time for a gym membership.

And anyway, I'd rather see a movie than play/musical any day of the week and twice on Tuesdays.

Riddle me this. Being South Park TV show fan, how does the Book of Morman musical have anything to do with the original South Park episode? One is hilarious and the other just sucks.

Musicals suck.

"Diamonds and brand watches" Everything you need to know is in that statement! "Hey, you must be 'cool', 'rich', 'important' or a 'Kardashian' because you have THE RIGHT WATCH!!!!!!"

When we shut off Niagara Falls you will no longer have cheap power to charge your Leaf and you will be reduced to using AAA batteries. Be afraid, be VERY afraid!

Seems to me you are working your post count up with spam so just who is the "post whore"?

While I may have MANY issues with Patrick, I will defend him and his misguided posts all day long against trolls like NYG.

And I’m totally OK with that. Diamonds and watches are not my area of interest. This is a forum for Cobras, you have one? Uh no. Will you ever have one? Uh no. Maybe you should troll the diamond and watch forums. Or maybe leafblowers.com.

Don’t you have some kitty litter to pick up at Petco or something?

NYG, I forgot to mention that there’s always the Harry Potter forum so you “muggles” can compare wand and broomstick sizes, since you’re Cobra-less.

You would have to offer to paint Patrick’s Cobra, before it could ever be considered the best looking ERA.
