Hey, everyone! I'm excited to share my thoughts on what it means to be a Tuner, to live a lifestyle as an automotive enthusiast with a passion for customizing one’s ride(s).
This is a post I've been meaning to share for some time because I often reflect not only on my own life experiences developing as a GearHead , but also on the incredible number of wonderful like-minded folks with whom I've had the honor of bantering over the decades. Indeed, wrenching seems to necessarily include realizing the pains and joys involved with learning about, and customizing, these wonderful machines. However, it’s important to note that Tuners are never solo; I could never be where I am today without the many professional and garage mechanics with whom fantastic, often humorous, sometimes angering, tales of our ideas, our struggles, our adventures, traumas, and successes have been swapped.
In this exposition, I'll be describing Tunerism as I’ve come to experience it, and how I've learned to live in the moment not just with a remarkable machine much crafted by my own hands, but with a lifestyle founded upon art in motion. I'll be updating my thoughts here as often as the the muse permits, and I've already developed a bunch to share. So, stay tuned!
If you feel so inclined, please feel free to share your experiences, if anything I discuss resonates with you, or not (that's cool too), but let's all agree to keep our convo respectful and cordial. The last thing the world needs is more conflict. It's okay to agree to disagree, and, in fact, good collaborations can be the result.
