This was a great road trip and even better event that I am so proud to be a part of. There were too many great moments to share and I am so grateful to you, Ed for bringing me onto this channel years ago and making it possible for me to be a part of this incredible group of people.

It was great seeing pics from the event. Would love to hear some stories from other Cannonballers too. Each run has its own unique origin and challenges.

This is the genius of Ed Bolian. He has his Mercedes mechanic friend fix up some old cars. He pays the mechanic a fair but probably friends n' family rate. And he *invites* the mechanic on the road trip that immediately follows the maintenance. So the mechanic knows that he'll be stranded on the side of the road if there are any hiccups, and his ego will suffer as well. All us car guys think we're smart and good negotiators. But Ed is king.

Is it just me or are most comments shadow banned? The counter says 17 comments, but I count less than half of that?

@theanomalous1401 Жыл бұрын

It is not just you, dude! Which begs the question, what on earth would occur in a automotive enthusiasts KZfaq channel that would warrant Shadow Banning? When I opened the comments, instead of the 37 it said was supposed to be there, only 2 were showing. One was the obligatory, " I'm first, please notice me. The other was someone throwing shade on Ed, because he finds the one thing Ed is passionate about and was the driving force behind the creation of the VinWiki Car Stories channel, "annoying'. I'm all about freedom of speech (God bless America 🇺🇲) I bet this dude is the kind that when his old lady asks him if the dress makes her look fat, he comes back with OMG, Hell YEAH❗
