What's Your Cylinder Index?

heRS · 10-15-2012, 03:54 PM

I was reading an article in a women's periodical recently and the author spoke of The Cylinder Index. Apparently a man will immediately know what The Cylinder Index is right away, and some women get it if they think about it for a second (that was me).
If you add together all the cylinders of all the cars, motorcycles, boats, chain saws, weed whackers and any other sundry internal combustion engines you have hanging around you have the total of your Cylinder Index.
Who on C5 has the highest Cylinder Index?

Men:
1-4 - Turn in your- Man-Card and go back to your village.

5-11 - Has aspirations to masculinity.

12-20 - Definitely got a good dose of testosterone happening there.

21-30 - Lives by the "He Who Has The Most Toys Wins" man-law.

31 + Give me a call

Women:
1-4 - Typical cylinder deprived woman.

5-11 - Must have had at least one brother or a dad into cars.

12-20 - Makes men in the 1-4 range cringe.

21-30 - Carrys a whuppin stick to beat cylinder deprived men away.

31 + Every Man's Dream Woman.

My Cylinder Index is 11 - a weedwhacker, my 4 cyl pickup and my 6 cyl Camaro.

Lets see....8 on each Camaro (I have 2), 8 on my Avalanche, 6 on the van, 2 on the mower, 2 on the motor cycle and 1 on the push mower puts me at 35!

Dave Coyle · 10-15-2012, 04:16 PM

OOPS, one more, the chain saw and that makes 36!

I live in an apartment. Once the house is built, the index will increase

Jason@JacFab · 10-15-2012, 05:52 PM

If you want to count just things that are complete and running, currently 26.

If you want to count engines sitting in the garage/shop that don't currently have a home also, then 55 total.

Camaro - 8
Mustang - 8

Just your own stuff. You can't count your sisters mustang, or mom and dad's junk.
If you are the HOH and bought your kid a car and the kid is still at home, that is technically going to boost your Cylinder Index.
