Ikonosin 10-23-2001, 10:03 PM look HERE (http://www.trunkmonkey.com/show.cphp?Article=3) Scott:D -=Ph/\t WRX=- 10-23-2001, 10:04 PM I'm not sure what it is, but it seems like most the i-clubbers wouldn't want to share that info with newbies. I've asked the same question before, but they give no answer. They tell you to check out some website that doesn't really answer the question. -=Ph/\t WRX=- 10-23-2001, 10:07 PM You see what I mean? Must mean that they don't even know what a trunkmonkey is themselves. The website doesn't answer the question buddy. What is a Trunkmonkey? The Trunkmonkey concept had been floating around the labs for quite a while before anyone actually decided to implement it. Consisting solely of a trained monkey and a steady source of ice cold high-quality import ale or lager, the Trunkmonkey lives in the trunk of any Subaru Impreza, Legacy, Forester or SVX platform vehicle and helps to automate weight transfer at the rear wheels during spirited driving maneuvers. If you don't want to explain or know how to explain what a trunk monkey is, don't even bother giving a link that says nothing about the definition.

Ikonosin 10-23-2001, 11:08 PM Flying Trunk monkey....my lazy a$$ trunk monkey can't fly damnit...and apparently he's "too good" for beer, he seems to have a taste for rum now....uugghh he's expensive. Peaty, where can I get a Flying Trunk Monkey? Also, do you have to worry about them trying to escape? :) Scott:D Sooberman 10-23-2001, 11:17 PM Don't all of you guys have one? It helps to indicate the G's you're pulling in the turns. Vigorous 10-24-2001, 12:04 AM This is a Trunk Monkey: http://www.imgstudio.com/original/1017015174227.jpg Its not in the trunk right now. It's taking a break. He had a rough weekend. He helps my car stay balanced, so I don't oversteer while outrunning the cops. ;) Oh yea, His name is SWAY. :monkey: BlueDemon 10-24-2001, 12:29 AM Alright my take on the whole Trunkmonkey thing is as follows. Basically it's a term used for an unknown noise which a suby makes. Because from what I understood from the webpage was that the monkey gets trashed and runs around the trunk, bumping, crashing, and making a hell of a noise. So if you hear an unknown, or annoying noise and your friend (who does not own a suby) asks "What the hell is that?" You just blame it on the Trunkmonkey! Mine was mean tonight :( :monkey: mWRX 10-24-2001, 12:39 AM That was a good explanation. Here is a graphical explanation http://www.trunkmonkey.com/gallery/planetkris/index.html THAI 10-24-2001, 02:06 AM Oh, I get it now. That's pretty funny. :lol: Onederer 10-24-2001, 02:12 AM I'm saving up for the intake ferret! Just not sure how it will co-exsist with my trunk monkey! -=Ph/\t WRX=- 10-24-2001, 02:17 AM The reason I don't find it humorous and probably others, is because of people who don't care to share what the term came from. Why would we find something we don't understand humorous? I don't have any noises from my trunk, so why should I know? The ones that take the humor out of it is the ones who don't care to explain to newbies. It was nice that BlueDemon cared to explain to those who don't understand. Thanks!

How did you do in your reading comprehension classes? Don't get in a twist it's a joke for gods sake! KillerTHC 10-24-2001, 02:25 AM if you want to be hardcore, you can get 2 trunk monkeys. but be warned, they will fight a lot. my STi pink likes to kick the little one's ass. :lol: but there are imitations... like my friends mitsubishi moose.... lame!

(it's our secret weapon) :D Slvrblt 10-24-2001, 05:04 AM you think you're monkey will hurt you?? you should see mine, he's pulled this on a few people allready, and at the huge NESIC meet- he gutted another poor monkey and danced around in the entrails:eek: :eek: http://wsphotofews.excite.com/035/gH/Kq/OU/bd39852.jpg speed safely Brian :devil: beware of mojo jojo nhluhr 10-24-2001, 10:24 AM Originally posted by -=Ph/\t WRX=- The reason I don't find it humorous and probably others, is because of people who don't care to share what the term came from. i never had to ask what a trunkmonkey was..... and that site seemed awefully clear to me. My trunkmonkey doesn't make any noise back there. weird. Coati 10-24-2001, 11:32 AM My lazy trunkmonkey seems to think the cargo net is a hammock, and so has not gotten around to making any noises to date.
