I used to be a director at a software company.

I now explain to people that you cannot write to the second memory area of the ECU with the Femto Unlock and explain 400 times a day that it's a calibration only solution.

It is a solution, it is also calibration only. https://willmy062020plusecugotorussia.com/

I'm also a director, but of design, at a start-up.

What I really do is post on forums how stupid I think people are.

Tech consulting/.NET dev. Nothing exciting but pays for the hobbies. Also helps not having kids, they're expensive.

I.T. Mgr for a large global mfg company. Hint - think blimp :) Been doing this software/IT thing for like 30 years. Prior to that a chemist with another large mfg company - Think "H'm!, H'm! Good!"

That's funny, I started as a programmer and now I'm a chemist. Got to say ... I miss the 0/1, on/off, yes/no, true/false, black/white days. Chemistry feels way less absolute.
LOL - Just the opposite - started out as a chemist and ended up software developer and then I.T. Manager... Oh - wait - was this in response to my post? LOL - I get confused following the threads sometimes! Plus I'm old!!!

Is it?

I would assume that a lot of tech/engineering type would rather gravitate toward cars like the Supra, GTR and Porsches rather than American muscle and pony cars.

White collar vs Blue collar.
I find it interesting though - I've been in IT for 30 years (give or take) and came from a Ford muscle car background - this is my first "tech" car - Love it - However - it may also have something to do with my age as well (60ish).... so I have a longer time with no/low tech vehicles - that's what I grew up with and was comfortable with.....

It's quite cathartic! I drive 100 miles round trip everyday - my daily is a 2008 ford ranger with 228k miles. Have to manually roll down my window every day going in/out of work to show guard my badge !
